Before multiswipes and the gesture manager this was impractical on touch-only devices, but no more!
Also includes some minor textual clarifications on some of the settings.
Supported devices:
- Boyue T61 and *some* clones
- Boyue T62 and *some* clones
- Onyx C67
- Energy Sistem (which are in fact Boyue T62 clones). Was tested on a energy pro 4.
Others may work with the same controller too, but are disabled by default.

For a hidden setting already present, and used in

Only shown, as the whole Navigation> submenu, on
devices with keys.
Manager supports separate gestures for the file manager and the reader. Gestures from the manager have a higher priority than built-in gestures.
Settings available in Gear -> Device -> Gesture manager
TouchMenu: added options to menu items with the following defaults:
keep_menu_open = false
hold_keep_menu_open = true
So, default for Tap callback is to close menu, and for Hold callback
to keep menu open.
In both cases, provide the TouchMenu instance as the 1st argument to
the callback functions (instead of a refresh_menu_func I added in #3941)
so the callback can do more things, like closing, refreshing,
changing menu items text and re-ordering...
ReaderZooming: show symbol for default (like it was done for
ReaderFont, ReaderHyphenation...)
TextEditor plugin: update the previously opened files list in real
time, so the menu can be kept open and used as the TextEditor main
interface.
SSH plugin: keep menu open and update the Start/Stop state in real time
ReadTimer plugin: tried to do what feels right (but I don't use it)
Also remove forgotten cp in the move/paste file code
This plugin mostly sets up a "Text editor>" submenu, that allows
browsing files, creating a new file, and managing a history of
previously opened file for easier re-opening.
It restore previous scroll and cursor positions on re-opening.
Additional "Check lua" syntax button is added when editing
a .lua file, and prevent saving if errors.
The text editing is mainly provided by the enhanced InputDialog.
InputDialog: added a few more options, the main one being
'save_callback', which will add a Save and Close buttons
and manage saving/discarding/exiting.
If "fullscreen" and "add_nav_bar", will add a show/hide keyboard
button to it.
Moved the preset buttons setup code in their own InputDialog
methods for clarity of the main init code.
Buttons are now enabled/disabled depending on context for feedback
(eg: Save is disabled as long as text has not been modified).
Added util.checkLuaSyntax(lua_string), might be useful elsewhere.
* Reader menu: adds "Open previous document"
Allows for quick switching between 2 documents, and keep
symmetry with FileManager menu "Open last document".
* Use "Last:" and "Previous:" when Show filename
* 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.

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.
While looking into #1219 I accidentally ended up refactoring some stuff.
Tested in emulator and on H2O, but be wary because I might have overlooked something.
which currently just sets free the limitation of panning gestures
emitting rate. This should fix#1039 when unchecking the
"E-ink optimization" in the "Screen settings".
This is a major overhaul of the hardware abstraction layer.
A few notes:
General platform distinction happens in
frontend/device.lua
which will delegate everything else to
frontend/device/<platform_name>/device.lua
which should extend
frontend/device/generic/device.lua
Screen handling is implemented in
frontend/device/screen.lua
which includes the *functionality* to support device specifics.
Actually setting up the device specific functionality, however,
is done in the device specific setup code in the relevant
device.lua file.
The same goes for input handling.
