SpongyCastle is a fork of BouncyCastle. We originally used this fork to 1) have
access to scrypt and 2) prevent a package name collision with the bundled
BouncyCastle. We don't actually need to use the fork anymore, because the
package name of the bundled BouncyCastle was changed in Android. SpongyCastle
has also gotten quite outdated in recent years.
The built-in version of BouncyCastle is replaced with the one bundled with the
app at runtime, so that we have a recent version even on older Android versions.
This also updates Gradle and the Gradle Android plugin, to fix a build error I
was running into when I added the dependency to BouncyCastle.
This fixes an issue where the existing PreferencesFragment was discarded when
restoring PreferencesActivity from instance state. This issue caused the
PreferencesFragment to no longer receive activity results. Most notably, this
resulted in 0 byte vault files being created when exporting the vault.
This'll display a warning to users who don't have automatic time synchronization
enabled on their device. Aegis will try to take the user to the right settings
menu if they tap "Yes". Users also have the option to silence the warning.

The main goals of this patch are to:
- Improve the exception handling in Aegis and the way we present errors messages
to the user when they occur.
- Write exception stack traces to the log in more places, so that the ADB logs
we ask for from our users when reporting bugs become more useful.
- Reduce the amount of times we throw a RuntimeException, particularly when an
Android Keystore operation fails.
Achieving the above goals ended up resulting in a very large refactor. The
intro and unlock flow of the app need to be retested entirely.
This makes it so that EditEntryActivity directly saves entries to the vault,
instead of passing them back to MainActivity through an Intent first. This
prevents crashes that can occur when an entry has a large icon and the Bundle
inside the Intent becomes too large.
This is the first part of a series of patches I plan on submitting, where I try
to repair the damage done by my misguided obsession of only touching the global
state in certain places.
This enables some minification and optimization options to shrink the size of
our APK. A release APK would previously be 12 MB in size, but would now be 8.2
MB.
To test, check if *all* of the functionality of the app still works,
particularly parts that refer to dependencies. You'll know if ProGuard broke
something when the app crashes with a ``ClassNotFoundException`` or similar
exception. I think I've covered all of the cases where ProGuard removed too much
in the rule file.
Also, I was curious why our APK had gotten so large to begin with. I did some
digging and found that this is caused by the SQLCipher dependency. The APK
shrinks down to 2.7 MB without it! We should consider whether having support for
importing from Authenticator Plus is worth the extra 5.5 MB in size.
I noticed a strange crash in the Play Console:

I can't reproduce this on my device, and we haven't received any reports from
users, but it would be pretty bad if Aegis crashes on some devices when showing
the password reminder popup. This patch is an attempt to fix that (see:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/33809860/12972657).
added two new theme options:
SYSTEM: dynamically switches between light and dark
SYSTEM_AMOLED: dynamically switches between light and amoled
reversed workaround for amoled themed preferences
launch screen now always follows the system theme
Changed selection color for black theme
Changed indicator color to black secondary
Fix indicator flickering when scrolling
Applied patch
Fix unsharp selection icon
Add selection indicators to small and compact view
