KOSync: Clarify settings, plus refactor & fixes to make "auto-sync" more reliable (#10605)
Fix: #10539, and for context #6489, #6733, #6534

Reorganize and reword most of the settings to make it clear what actually ties into auto sync, and what doesn't. (Specifically, what happens when a pull attempts to sync forward or backward has nothing to do with auto sync, it applies in all cases; while the periodic sync *does* require auto sync).

The main point of contention, though, is that auto sync will now *always* attempt to setup network connectivity (i.e., on resume/suspend/close). Periodic sync will *not* though (the intent being that, if you use periodic sync, you're relying on the activity check to actually keep wifi on at all times)).

Since this may lead to a large amount of nagging about wifi toggles on devices w/ NetworkManager support, it is now *disabled* by default on those devices. (And given that it wouldn't have worked because of the lack of connectivity, that doesn't really make any practical difference ;p).

Additionally, given the fact that there's no way to make this behavior viable if the "before wifi" action is left at its default of "prompt", this feature now *requires* that to be set to "turn_on" (on devices where it can, of course); attempting to toggle it on will warn about that if necessary.
This change is retroactive (OTM).

Includes an assortment of fixes and cleanups, including migrating to the new LuaSettings API, which is why there's no longer a smattering of superfluous flushes.

Main features

  • portable: runs on embedded devices (Cervantes, Kindle, Kobo, PocketBook, reMarkable), Android and Linux computers. Developers can run a KOReader emulator in Linux and MacOS.

  • multi-format documents: supports fixed page formats (PDF, DjVu, CBT, CBZ) and reflowable e-book formats (EPUB, FB2, Mobi, DOC, RTF, HTML, CHM, TXT). Scanned PDF/DjVu documents can also be reflowed with the built-in K2pdfopt library. ZIP files are also supported for some formats.

  • full-featured reading: multi-lingual user interface with a highly customizable reader view and many typesetting options. You can set arbitrary page margins, override line spacing and choose external fonts and styles. It has multi-lingual hyphenation dictionaries bundled into the application.

  • integrated with calibre (search metadata, receive ebooks wirelessly, browse library via OPDS), Wallabag, Wikipedia, Google Translate and other content providers.

  • optimized for e-ink devices: custom UI without animation, with paginated menus, adjustable text contrast, and easy zoom to fit content or page in paged media.

  • extensible: via plugins

  • fast: on some older devices, it has been measured to have less than half the page-turn delay as the built in reading software.

  • and much more: look up words with StarDict dictionaries / Wikipedia, add your own online OPDS catalogs and RSS feeds, over-the-air software updates, an FTP client, an SSH server, …
