* Revamped most actions that require an internet connection to a new/fixed backend that allows forwarding the initial action and running it automatically once connected. (i.e., it'll allow you to set "Action when Wi-Fi is off" to "turn_on", and whatch stuff connect and do what you wanted automatically without having to re-click anywhere instead of showing you a Wi-Fi prompt and then not doing anything without any other feedback).
* Speaking of, fixed the "turn_on" beforeWifi action to, well, actually work. It's no longer marked as experimental.
* Consistently use "Wi-Fi" everywhere.
* On Kobo/Cervantes/Sony, implemented a "Kill Wi-Fi connection when inactive" system that will automatically disconnect from Wi-Fi after sustained *network* inactivity (i.e., you can keep reading, it'll eventually turn off on its own). This should be smart and flexible enough not to murder Wi-Fi while you need it, while still not keeping it uselessly on and murdering your battery.
(i.e., enable that + turn Wi-Fi on when off and enjoy never having to bother about Wi-Fi ever again).
* Made sending `NetworkConnected` / `NetworkDisconnected` events consistent (they were only being sent... sometimes, which made relying on 'em somewhat problematic).
* restoreWifiAsync is now only run when really needed (i.e., we no longer stomp on an existing working connection just for the hell of it).
* We no longer attempt to kill a bogus non-existent Wi-Fi connection when going to suspend, we only do it when it's actually needed.
* Every method of enabling Wi-Fi will now properly tear down Wi-Fi on failure, instead of leaving it in an undefined state.
* Fixed an issue in the fancy crash screen on Kobo/reMarkable that could sometime lead to the log excerpt being missing.
* Worked-around a number of sneaky issues related to low-level Wi-Fi/DHCP/DNS handling on Kobo (see the lengthy comments [below](https://github.com/koreader/koreader/pull/6424#issuecomment-663881059) for details). Fix#6421
Incidentally, this should also fix the inconsistencies experienced re: Wi-Fi behavior in Nickel when toggling between KOReader and Nickel (use NM/KFMon, and run a current FW for best results).
* For developers, this involves various cleanups around NetworkMgr and NetworkListener. Documentation is in-line, above the concerned functions.
* Try to make sure restoreWifiAsync eventually sends a NetworkConnected
event...
re: #5109
* Take a page from @shermp's book, and make sure wpa_supplicant managed to
connect to the AP before acquiring an IP.
Tear down WiFi modules in case of failure.
c.f., https://github.com/shermp/Kobo-UNCaGED/pull/21
* Don't let restore-wifi-async.sh enable WiFi behind our back when we're
killing it to start Nickel...
* Don't even call ping if there's no default gw
* Flag those scripts as executable in git
Somewhat irrelevant because we'll end up living on a FAT32 drive, but,
still.
* Cleanup Kobo startup script
Support KFMon >= 0.9.5
Don't siphon PRODUCT from nickel, it's exported by rcS, so fmon/KFMon
already inherit it.
Siphon NICKEL_HOME, on the off-chance nickel fails to figure that one
out for itself on restart.
Siphon LANG (This may be a terrible idea, rcS sets LANG to en_US.UTF-8,
while we set LC_ALL to en_US.UTF-8, but I don't know if nickel itself
ever updates LANG, since I have mine set to en_US also ;)).
My secret hope if that everything's working as it should and this ensures
we default to Nickel's locale on fresh installs?
Remove the extra sync on startup, both @Baskerville's fmon and KFMon are
smart enough not to do anything overly stupid, and recent FW versions
have a slightly more resilient DB anyway (rollback journal -> WAL).
This effectively shaves over a second off our startup time.
* Slimmed down the nickel restart script.
Based on current rcS
Scrapped a bucketload of irrelevant & legacy crap, since we're never
bootstrapping nickel, only restarting it.
* Update Kobo install instrcutions.
Point to KSM09, @Baskerville's fmon, and KFMon.
Deprecate legacy fmon, and as such, stop shipping a useless KoboRoot
tarball.
