* Get rid of the `canToggleGSensor` Device cap, it's now mandatory for `hasGSensor` devices. (This means Kindles can now toggle the gyro, fix#9136).
* This also means that `Device:toggleGSensor` is now implemented by `Generic`.
* Update the Screen & Gyro rotation constants to be clearer (c.f., https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/1568) (/!\ This might conceivably break some `rotation_map` user-patches).
* Input: Move the platform-specific gyro handling to Device implementations, and let Input only handle a single, custom protocol (`EV_MSC:MSC_GYRO`).
* Input: Refine the `rotation_map` disable method implemented in 43b021d37c. Instead of directly poking at the internal field, use a new method, `disableRotationMap` (/!\ Again, this might break some `rotation_map` user-patches).
* Input: Minor tweaks to event adjust hooks to make them more modular, allowing the Kobo implementation to build and use a single composite hook. API compatibility maintained with wrappers.
* Added a new plugin external-keyboard. It listens to USB events. When keyboard is plugged in or plugged out, it updates device and input configuration accordingly.
* Added new fake events UsbDevicePlugIn and UsbDevicePlugOut that are emitted when a device is connected to a book reader that plays the role of USB host. The usage of the existing events UsbPlugIn and UsbPlugOut has not changed - they are used when a reader is connected to a host. The koreader-base has a related PR for those events.
* Did a small refactoring of initialization for the modules FocusManager and InputText. They check device keyboard capabilities on their when the module is first loaded and store it. Some of the initialization code has been extracted into functions, so that we can re-initialize them when keyboard is (dis)connected.
* Initial implementation centered around text input, and tested with USB keyboards on devices with OTG support.
* Said OTG shenanigans are so far supported on devices with debugfs & the chipidea driver, or sunxi devices.
And do so only for the active layouts.
This prevents loading a potentially large amount of data without even having navigated to said menu (or having the layout enabled).
* UIManager: Support more specialized update modes for corner-cases:
* A2, which we'll use for the VirtualKeyboards keys (they'd... inadvertently switched to UI with the highlight refactor).
* NO_MERGE variants of ui & partial (for sunxi). Use `[ui]` in ReaderHighlight's popup, because of a Sage kernel bug that could otherwise make it translucent, sometimes completely so (*sigh*).
* UIManager: Assorted code cleanups & simplifications.
* Logger & dbg: Unify logging style, and code cleanups.
* SDL: Unbreak suspend/resume outside of the emulator (fix#9567).
* NetworkMgr: Cache the network status, and allow it to be queried. (Used by AutoSuspend to avoid repeatedly poking the system when computing the standby schedule delay).
* OneTimeMigration: Don't forget about `NETWORK_PROXY` & `STARDICT_DATA_DIR` when migrating `defaults.persistent.lua` (fix#9573)
* WakeupMgr: Workaround an apparent limitation of the RTC found on i.MX5 Kobo devices, where setting a wakealarm further than UINT16_MAX seconds in the future would apparently overflow and wraparound... (fix#8039, many thanks to @yfede for the extensive deep-dive and for actually accurately pinpointing the issue!).
* Kobo: Handle standby transitions at full CPU clock speeds, in order to limit the latency hit.
* UIManager: Properly quit on reboot & exit. This ensures our exit code is preserved, as we exit on our own terms (instead of being killed by the init system). This is important on platforms where exit codes are semantically meaningful (e.g., Kobo).
* UIManager: Speaking of reboot & exit, make sure the Screensaver shows in all circumstances (e.g., autoshutdown, re: #9542)), and that there aren't any extraneous refreshes triggered. (Additionally, fix a minor regression since #9448 about tracking this very transient state on Kobo & Cervantes).
* Kindle: ID the upcoming Scribe.
* Bump base (https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/1524)
* This removes support for the following deprecated constants: `DTAP_ZONE_FLIPPING`, `DTAP_ZONE_BOOKMARK`, `DCREREADER_CONFIG_DEFAULT_FONT_GAMMA`
* The "Advanced settings" panel now highlights modified values in bold (think about:config in Firefox ;)).
* LuaData: Isolate global table lookup shenanigans, and fix a few issues in unused-in-prod codepaths.
* CodeStyle: Require module locals for Lua/C modules, too.
* ScreenSaver: Actually garbage collect our widget on close (ScreenSaver itself is not an instantiated object).
* DateTimeWidget: Code cleanups to ensure child widgets can be GC'ed.
Commonize fullscreen code across different devices.
Add fullscreen toggle on SDL desktop targets.
Expose the toggle to the dispatcher and map it to F11.
Hide touchmenu when resizing.
Add a copy button and save word context (off by default), shown
via the three-dot menu of word entries.
Also some db refactoring and minor UI improvements:
- a dedicated book title table in order to shrink db size by storing
references to title names instead of repeated actual strings,
- alignment of different forms of the "more" button and possible
clipped words in translations.
- fix plugin name so it can be disabled
readerhighlight: non-touch support
focusmanager: fix same type container share same selected field
radiobuttonwidget: non touch support
sortwidget: non touch support
openwithdialog: fix layout contains textinput, checkboxes added to layout twice
Add a submenu allowing users to add Noto Sans fonts
to be used as UI fallback fonts.
Lots of them are alrady there on Android, but can be
downloaded (manually) and side-loaded by the user
on other platforms.
- Book map: shows a map of content, including TOC,
boomarks, read pages, non-linear flows...
- Page browser: shows thumbnails of pages.
- ReaderThumbnail: new Reader module that provides
a service for generating thumbnails of book pages.
It makes available these 2 new fullscreen widgets.
- ReaderBookmark, ReaderLink, Statistics: add methods
to return new views of bookmarks, previous locations
and read pages, that are needed by BookMapWidget.
- ReaderToc: compute TOC max_depth.
- ReaderBookmark, ReaderHighlight: send events on
bookmark add/update/remove so thumbnails of the
pages impacted can be trashed.
