0.5.7 Oreo update

• Add notification channels

  Notification channels are required when targetting Android
  Oreo, otherwise notifications are not shown.

  We have 3 channels for now:

  • Running service (minimum priority)
  • Paused service (low priority)
  • Host file updates (low priority)

  This matches earlier behaviour as far as possible.

0.5.6 bug fix release

• Update GSON to 2.8.2

• Upgrade to SDK version 26 (Oreo)

  That's what I'm using now, so let's build with it.

• Update to pcap4j 1.7.2 for aitoy/pcap4#123

  pcap4j 1.7.1 had issues parsing certain packets.

• Allow applications to bypass the VPN themselves

  This might help with #193, not sure.

• Report stopped when stopped by third party

  There seems to be a more generic life-cycle problem here, as that
  does not seem to be the correct solution, but it at least fixes the
  issue as good as possible. Really gotta do that life-cycle rework.

• Treat system webview like a browser in 'system except browsers'

  System webview widgets might be running the view in some webview
  UID sandbox or something, not sure, but according to #125 this
  solves the issue.

  Fixes #125

• Don't just crash if logcat fails

  Fixes #206

• Increase update timeouts

  Increase the time out for connect to 30 seconds, and the overall
  execution wait thing to an hour - this one really should not be
  timing out in the first place, otherwise you get inconsistent
  results.

  Fixes #207

• Re-add external storage permissions

  Some vendors like Xiaomi seem to produce horribly broken
  systems that require external storage permission for
  ACTION_CREATE_DOCUMENT with CATEGORY_OPENABLE. They
  just pop up a toast saying to toggle on file permissions
  in settings, but if we do not list file permissions in
  the manifest, there are none to be toggled on in settings.

  This does not really have any effect on other Android >= 6.0
  phone, as permissions have to be requested at run-time and the
  manifest just specifies an upper set, but it should allow Mi
  users to work around their horribly broken systems.

0.5.5 bugfix and translation release

This might improve memory usage a bit because we are switching to a new pcap4j release.

0.5.1 lollipop hotfix

Quick hotfix for disabling watchdog by default,
so we can reduce the effect of this being apparently
broken in Lollipop (maybe Marshmallow, not tested).

Also fixes badly scaled images on Lollipop.

Nothing fancy for non-Lollipop users.

0.5.0

• New UI:
  • Tabs instead of bottom navigation
  • Teal/Light blue color scheme instead of Indigo/Pink
  • New round icon
  • Various accessibility improvements for talkback and
    navigation by focus
  • Improved RTL support
• New host file downloader
  • Automatic daily host file updates (if enabled)
• Support for local host files
• VPN-related changes:
  • Watchdog to ensure the connection stays alive after
    a reconnect and hourly
  • IPv6 support becomes optional, and is only turned on
    when there are actually IPv6 servers to be used.
  • The default for which apps bypass DNS66 can now be
    set to 'All' or 'System apps except browsers'.
• Ability to pause and resume VPN connection from notification
• New translations:
  • Russian by @NBuzovsky
  • Japanese by @naofum
  • French by @roptat

Thanks to everyone who contributed translations or provided
feedback on the pre-release builds in the XDA thread.

0.4.1 release

• Much faster parsing of host files (about 13 times as fast)
• Fixed huge memory leak on service restart
• Allow clients to cache blocked hosts for 5 seconds
• Cleaned up code and added unit tests for core logic

0.4.0 release

This release cleans up the UI a bit, adds IPv6 support, and is a lot of fun.

On the building side, the target is now API level 25 and gradle 3.3 with plugin 2.3 is used.
