* Switch all initial highlights to "fast" update
i.e., everything that does an invert
Plus a few other things that refresh small UI elements onTap
Re #3130
* Tweak refreshtype for a number of widgets:
* Fix iconbutton dimen
* Make touchmenu flash on close & initial menu popup. Full-screen on close.
* Use flashing updates when opening/closing dictionary popup. Full-screen on close.
* Switch FileManager to partial.
It's mostly text, and we want flash promotion there.
* Make configdialog & menu flash on exit
* Make FLWidget flash on close
* virtualkeyboard: flash on layout change & popup.
* Potentially not that great workaround to ensure we actually see the
highlights in the FM's chevrons
* Flash when closing BookStatus Widget
* Optimize away a quirk of the dual "fast" update in touchmenu
* Promote updates to flashing slightly more agressively.
* Document what each refreshtype actually does.
With a few guidelines on their optimal usecases.
* Switch remaining scheduleIn(0.0) to nextTick()
* Tighter scheduling timers
Shaving a hundred ms off UI callbacks...
* Cache FFI C Library namespace
* Ask MuPDF to convert pixmaps to BGR on Kobo
Fix#3949
* Mention koxtoolchain in the README
re #3972
* Kindle: Handle *all* fonts via EXT_FONT_DIR instead of bind mounts insanity
* Make black flashes in UI elements user-configurable
(All or nothing).
* Jot down some random KOA2 sysfs path
When no manually added specific 'poweroff' or 'reboot' screensaver
settings, use the suspend/sleep settings set via menu with an added
overlay message in top right corner.
Generalized some settings: "White background behind message and images"
and "Stretch covers and images to fit screen", and move "Exclude this
book's cover from screensaver" up a level (and remove this menu item
added by ReaderMenu when closing document).
Don't use memory cache with rendered screensaver images.
ImageWidget: fix wrong behaviour (stretch) when 'file', 'width',
'height' and 'scale_factor' provided: now, keep aspect ratio.
ImageWidget: increase file image mem cache (mostly used for icons)
from 2 to 5MB to be ready for devices with very high DPI.
Configure number of items per page (from 6 to 24) - default is 14
Allow filenames to wrap so that we can see the full name
Used by File browser, History, Search Result, Bookmarks, Table of contents (only single line), File chooser, OPDS catalog
Use "message" as the default for screensaver (instead of "disable") (https://github.com/koreader/koreader/pull/3535#issuecomment-353337143)
On Kobo
Fix: display message on poweroff or reboot (https://github.com/koreader/koreader/pull/3535#issuecomment-352355865)
Allows for overwritting these default messages with the classic screensaver settings, by just prepending "poweroff_" or "reboot_" to them. (https://github.com/koreader/koreader/pull/3535#issuecomment-352498497)
So one can manually add to its settings.reader.lua:
```
"poweroff_screensaver_type" = "random_image" or "message", "cover", "bookstatus", "readingprogress", "disable",
"poweroff_screensaver_dir" = "path to same as screensaver_dir or alternate dir for poweroff image(s)",
"poweroff_screensaver_message" = "message to use instead of Powered off",
```
```
"reboot_screensaver_type" = "random_image" or "message", "cover", "bookstatus", "readingprogress", "disable",
"reboot_screensaver_dir" = "path to same as screensaver_dir or alternate dir for reboot image(s)",
"reboot_screensaver_message" = "message to use instead of Rebooting...",
```
* Prevent open screensaver more than one in the same time
* Add option to enable/disable background in message screensaver
* fallback to random images if this book cover is excluded feature + fix Disabled (leave screen/page as it is)
* Autostretch disable by default, more fallback options, leave screen as it is
* fixes#2898 (prevents accidentally triggering reboot or poweroff)
Add ConfirmBox before reboot/power off
* increases clarity by preventing second page
* add "sleep" menu entry
* Add exit menu hold callback
* CoverBrowser plugin: alt views for File Browser and History
* Added Prune cache and Compact cache menu actions
* Support for book descriptions, and settings stored in db
- Factored out duplicate code from filemanager.lua and filemanagerhistory.lua
to new filemanagerbookinfo.lua (and other common code to filemanagerutil.lua).
- Uses sidecar files' new doc_props and doc_pages settings, or fallback to
old 'stats' settings, or to opening document.
- Shows filename, filetype and directory.
- Shows description (Hold to see whole truncated text), keywords, and
cover image (tap to extract image from document and display it if available).
- Book information now available from reader menu, to display info about
the currently opened book.
- Convert possibly HTML description to plain text via added
util.htmlToPlainTextIfHtml() (for simple HTML conversion).
* Force refresh when kindle is out of screensaver or usb is unpluged.
* Improve AutoFrontlight
* More plugins sub menu
* Last brightness should always be updated
* Finish autofrontlight improvement and enable it by default.
* More tets
* onFlushSettings
* MenuSorter can now correctly sort sub menus
* [fix] stop propagation of tap events
when triggering reader menu
And also get rid of unnecessary screen refreshes on Kindle Voyage.
The "progress" window for dict lookup is also eliminated as most of the time dict lookup is an instant process, and the "progress" window is preserved for wikipedia lookup as it may take longer time to show the result window.
* [up] add an option to disable dictionary fuzzy search
* [fix] tidy up require
* [fix] fix read settings

* Swipe for menu and quickstart guide
Because swiping for the menu is a big change from what we're used to, this commit includes a new quickstart guide.
Fixes#2608.
* add some dev docs
* add FileConverter spec
* add QuickStart spec
* add Version module
* add Version spec
* plugin loader(feat): support loading plugins from user defined directories
Extra plugin lookup paths can be set in global reader setting via key
`extra_plugin_paths`. Value of the key can either be a string or an array
of strings.

* plugin: migrate debug plugin to menu sorter
This commit seeks to improve the paltry help menu item. It breaks the "try to have at least three items in a submenu" rule in anticipation of an upcoming quickstart guide and show quickstart guide setting. This guide will explain that (soon) you will have to swipe south at the top of the screen to activate the menu.
Also see the somewhat related #1371, which would also go in the submenu.
