The changes include work done to ensure that GDNative apps and Nim
integration specifically can run on Android. The changes have been
tested on our WIP game, which uses godot-nim and depends on several
third-party .so libs, and Platformer demo to ensure nothing got broken.
- .so libraries are exported to lib/ folder in .apk, instead of assets/,
because that's where Android expects them to be and it resolves the
library name into "lib/<ABI>/<name>", where <ABI> is the ABI matching
the current device. So we establish the convention that Android .so
files in the project must be located in the folder corresponding to
the ABI they were compiled for.
- Godot callbacks (event handlers) are now called from the same thread
from which Main::iteration is called. It is also what Godot now
considers to be the main thread, because Main::setup is also called
from there. This makes threading on Android more consistent with
other platforms, making the code that depends on Thread::get_main_id
more portable (GDNative has such code).
- Sizes of GDNative API types have been fixed to work on 32-bit
platforms.
- Fixes some single-dash leftovers that were missed in the previous commit
- Reorder the help output for clarity, and document missing options
- Drop obsolete options: --noop, --pack, --editor-scene, --level, --import, --import-script, --no-quit
- Improve error message on malformed arguments and do not display help on error
- Always use long form of arguments when starting a new Godot process from C++, for clarity and easy grepping
- Cleanup obsolete code here and there

/godot_dev/platform/android/java/src/com/google/android/vending/expansion/downloader/impl/DownloaderService.java:575: Error: The WIFI_SERVICE must be looked up on the Application context or memory will leak on devices < Android N. Try changing to .getApplicationContext() [WifiManagerLeak]
mWifiManager = (WifiManager) getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Explanation for issues of type "WifiManagerLeak":
On versions prior to Android N (24), initializing the WifiManager via
Context#getSystemService can cause a memory leak if the context is not the
application context. Change context.getSystemService(...) to
context.getApplicationContext().getSystemService(...).

That year should bring the long-awaited OpenGL ES 3.0 compatible renderer
with state-of-the-art rendering techniques tuned to work as low as middle
end handheld devices - without compromising with the possibilities given
for higher end desktop games of course. Great times ahead for the Godot
community and the gamers that will play our games!
Upgrade Gradle and Android plugin for Gradle
Disable all signing and zip-aligning for the export templates
Give correct names to generated APKs
Put .so files built by SCons right where Gradle has to pick them according to arch & build type
Downgrade NDK platform to 14 to match minSdkVersion
using ``NotificationCompat`` in ``support-v4`` library will increase APK filesize a little bit, but it guarantees to run OK with API 4+
tested with API 19 and 23 devices
If we update build gradle to use ``compileSdkVersion 23``,
``org.apache.http`` package causes error. (issue #4711)
We need to use ``useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy'`` to solve this problem.
To use ``useLibrary``, we need to use latest gradle also.
And now, we faced another problem with ``APK Expansion`` java sources.
```
/platform/android/java/src/com/google/android/vending/expansion/downloader/impl/DownloadNotification.java
137 : mCurrentNotification.setLatestEventInfo(mContext, mCurrentTitle, mCurrentText, mContentIntent); // causes error
```
So, some of APK Expansion java sources are updated by referencing commits from https://github.com/danikula/Google-Play-Expansion-File
And dropped V3CustomNotification.java which was for android 3.0, since godot supports android 14 (4.0) above officially.
Unfortunately, another problem, The 'MissingTranslation' error was occurred.
So, build.gradle is updated to use ``disable 'MissingTranslation'``
Additionally, I updated ``buildToolsVersion``, ``targetSdkVersion`` to latest version.
I tested APK Expansion funtionality on Android 6.0 (Nexus 9, Nexus 6p) and Android 4.4 (Galaxy Note 2) with Google Developer console.
