Resizing the app view/window on android causes a full app restart

[jamesmunns]

Describe the bug

Resizing the app on android, for example when using "split screen" features, causes a full app re-launch.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Start the bluesky app on android
2. Hit the "square" app switching button
3. Click on the bluesky app icon above the app screen
4. Hit "split screen"
5. Choose another app to split the screen with
6. The bluesky app relaunches when it is "shrunk" to be half the screen size
7. Resize the split by dragging the divider bar, so the bluesky app is 1/4 or 3/4 of the screen size
8. The bluesky app relaunches every time you resize the split

Expected behavior

The bluesky app should resize and update the layout without restarting (potentially crashing? not sure)

Screenshots

(I don't have GH logged on with my phone, if you can't repro and need screenshots or a screen recording, let me know and I will do it)

Recorded this to show a friend, so I figured I'd go ahead and upload the repro video.

I had no idea Android even supports this. We'll have to find some time to suss out why it's doing this.
