The concept is quite simple: stick a file on the OTA server named
something like `koreader-appimage-latest-stable` (by analogy with
`koreader-cervantes-latest-stable.zsync`), which contains nothing
but a filename.
The difference with the zsync update is that the link is then launched
in the user's browser (AppImage) or DownloadManager (Android, not yet
implemented).
* Android hasOTAUpdate = no for the moment

Currently only tested on Ubuntu-touch emulator with framework
ubuntu-sdk-14.10 for armhf.
The ubuntu-touch port is binary compatible with the Kobo port
major changes in this PR are:
1. rename the emulator device to sdl device since both the emulator
and the ubuntu-touch target use libsdl to handle input/output.
2. ubuntu-touch app has no write access to the installation dir so
all write-outs should be in a seperate dir definded in `datastorage`.
