Allow the local repo to use HTTPS:// instead of HTTP://. This is currently
default off since handling the self-signed certificate is not currently
graceful. In the future, the SPKI that AndroidPinning uses should be
included in the repo meta data, then when someone marks a repo as trusted,
that local repo's SPKI should be added to the list of trusted keys in
AndroidPinning.

This makes it so the local repo is always signed by a locally generated and
stored key. That key will become the unique ID that represents a given
local repo. It should seamlessly upgrade any existing unsigned local repo
next time that the user makes any changes to their local repo.

Before, it didn't seem to find anything unless I ran this on my laptop:
`avahi-browse -a -v`
So added two recommended practices from other jmdns code for Android:
* force full resolution on receiving serviceAdded()
* feed the WiFi's IP address to jmdns when creating an instance

Find local repos with jmdns
This enables users to find local repos on local wifi using mDNS. Local repos can be advertized according to a preference, and you can find local repos by browsing via mDNS in `ManageRepos` under the "Find Local Repos".
This also includes fixes for the `SignedRepoUpdater` tests, and comments out other tests that have not yet worked.
The local repo generation code will take the description from the manifest
and include it in the repo meta data. So FDroid itself should also include
this description. Indeed every app should... perhaps this should also be
an `fdroid lint` item.
The tests of the jar signatures require working on files, but some
emulators make that very difficult. So try all possible paths for writing
to, and otherwise just skip the tests.
FDroid repos are advertised via Bonjour as plain HTTP or HTTPS services,
since they are browseable with a standard Web Browser. The "Find Local
Repos" browser in FDroid should only show FDroid repos, not any website,
so that is detected using a "type" TXT record in the FDroid broadcasts.
Multicast transmission is subject to heavy power management on Android,
because it apparently can be a battery drain. mDNS/Bonjour is based
entirely on multicast, so in order to have good Bonjour performance, there
needs to be good multicast performance. MulticastLock provides that.
fixes#3381https://dev.guardianproject.info/issues/3381
This name is used in the RepoList, the local repo website title, the
Bonjour broadcast, etc. By default, a name is generated using the make and
model of the phone plus a random number.
This adds support for registering the local repo with Bonjour/mDNS so that
it is broadcast out to all devices on the local network. This makes it
easy to discover and add local repos on the same wifi.

* The repo instructions are just a duplicate of the simple git submodules
* The Android.mk build instructions don't work and will never support what
e.g. gradle does
Anyone wanting to bundle F-Droid in a ROM can build it with git and gradle,
and then including the resulting apk.
UI bug fixes
This fixes a couple of crasher issues with the UI. And also a small change to allow Eclipse to find the reference files for Android Support.
I tried lots of things to make it more general, but the implementation of
this jar properties file is just too simple, so no variables can be used.
I renamed the other files related to android-support to match the naming
scheme.
