AndroidX support

[vkotovv]

Any plans to support Android X instead of support library?

There's a branch androidx that started the support of AndroidX, but it's fairly old now and probably needs some updating... Last time I checked it could be used directly from JitPack:

implementation 'com.github.Ferfalk:SimpleSearchView:androidx-SNAPSHOT'

@vkotovv @Ferfalk I updated support for androidx .#13

[vkotovv]

Just an idea: I think it makes sense to merge androidx branch into master now and release a new stable version of the library (with these breaking changes).
Anyone who needs old support library can use old version or modify the source code. The stable version of AndroidX was released in September 2018 (see notes).

@Ferfalk this can be closed now I guess
