Fixes #854. There is a bunch of UI code which runs in `onResumeFragments()`. However it all depends on the `app` variable in `AppDetails` being up to date. There is a number of things which could've changed since last refresh, the most notable of which is that the app may have been installed/uninstalled. Thus, this particular change checks only for a difference in installed state. However it could equally do a deeper comparison between the old and new `App` objects if it becomes aparant that other state becomes stale between pause and resume in the future. It is true that this requires a database query to be run each time the activity is resumed, but it doesn't seem there is much else we can do to prevent bugs relating to stale state.

FAQ
- Why does F-Droid require "Unknown Sources" to install apps by default?
Because a regular Android app cannot act as a package manager on its own. To do so, it would require system privileges (see below), similar to what Google Play does.
- Can I avoid enabling "Unknown Sources" by installing F-Droid as a privileged system app?
This used to be the case, but no longer is. Now the Privileged Extension is the one that should be placed in the system. It can be bundled with a ROM or installed via a zip, or alternatively F-Droid can install it as a system app using root.
