The system's are sometimes wrong, e.g. unexpected names. This also helps
our support across different Android versions without having to worry as
much about the system's language support.
Fixes#503.
Fix 324 : Out of memory errors while updating repos.
Fixes#324, but in the process makes the updater take a lot longer. My benchmarks tell me that an update which used to take approx 30 seconds on my Nexus 4 now takes about 50-55 seconds. This is because it first inserts the apps into the database (in a temp table) and then subsequently copies that table to the actual table. This means there is a lot more disk access than before.
I'm open for discussion on whether this tradeoff is worth it - however I'll caution that there is always going to be a tradeoff between faster and more memory vs slower and less memory. This is the case with all software, and perhaps more so with memory constrained devices such as phones. Also, as the repo index grows (until perhaps we are able to extract the app descriptions in the future), this will become more of an issue.
I'd also like this to be CR'ed properly before merging, because it changes some important code around the repo updater. It is important because security, and it is also important because it is the main thing that F-Droid needs to do (get a list of apps to show the user).

Improved support for HTTP Basic Authentication
Extended DownloaderFactory to support optional username & password parameters.
Extended HttpDownloader to check for HTTP 401 Authorization Required status code
and send a simple HTTP Basic Authentication header with all requests.
Extended ManageReposActivity to support repositories that use HTTP Basic
Authentication, added a dialog to prompt for username and password.
Extended RepoDetailsActivity to be able to display and modify the authentication

TextView respects textViewStyle since appcompat-v7:22.2:
public AppCompatTextView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
- this(context, attrs, 0);
+ this(context, attrs, android.R.attr.textViewStyle);
}
This change in appcompat-v7 breaks previous behaviour by applying
textColorSecondary to TextViews: text becomes grey after upgrading
appcompat-v7 to 22.2.

Add night theme

Similar to the dark theme, but dropping blue in favour of very dark shades of
grey.
Removed colorEdgeEffect to simplify the sharing of the style between dark and
night themes. It should default to colorPrimary anyway, so we're good.
Fixes#345.
This change primarily affects the AppDetails links section to make them easier to click. It also strips down the UI a bit to provide a cleaner interface as well as some modest Material Design tweaks.
Fixes#389.
Instead, keep downloading until the `InputStream` returns -1.
Also, required updates to the UI so that when the download size is
not known, there is still a reasonable response to the user.
Note that this still fails when using the Android download manager
if the download attempts to get resumed, and the server did not
send a Connection: close, Content-Length, or Transfer-Encoding: Chunked
header.

Remove useless attributes; add styles with proper paddings, size and color
for caption and body text. Unfortunately, line spacing attributes are
supported only since Jelly Bean.
