* LuaSettings/DocSettings: Updated readSetting API to allow proper initialization to default.
Use it to initialize tables, e.g., fixing corner-cases in readerFooter that could prevent settings from being saved.
(Fixes an issue reported on Gitter).
* LuaSettings/DocSettings: Add simpler API than the the flip* ones to toggle boolean settings.
* Update LuaSettings/DocSettigns usage throughout the codebase to use the dedicated boolean methods wher appropriate, and clean up some of the more mind-bending uses.
* FileChooser: Implement an extended default exclusion list (fix#2360)
* ScreenSaver: Refactor to avoid the pile of kludges this was threatening to become. Code should be easier to follow and use, and fallbacks now behave as expected (fix#4418).
A BackgroundRunner plugin instance will stop running
(rescheduling a check every 2 seconds) when there is no
(or no more) job to run.
Clients of this service now have to emit an event after
adding a job into PluginShare.backgroundJobs, so an
already loaded but stopped BackgroundRunner can notice
it and start running again.

* Basically flags devices known to be stable when using PxP inversion.
* Plus, random fix for #4870 ;).
* A few FrontLight tweaks & cleanups on Kobo:
* Moved the Kobo-specific startup status insanity to Kobo-specific init
* Made turnOff/turnOn frontlight do a smooth ramp down/up
* On Kobo, use turnOff/turnOn for suspend/resume, to get that smooth toggle
* On Kobo, for NaturalLight w/ a mixer, only set warmth for setWarmth, and only set Brightness for setBrightness, otherwise, it tried to set both with not in-sync values, which made the FL widget jittery.
* Use getCapacityHW() to ensure latest battery capacity can be retrieved
* BackgroundRunner
* Start background_runner_spec.lua
* AutofrontLight plugin now uses BackgroundRunner plugin
* Force refresh when kindle is out of screensaver or usb is unpluged.
