voldisp: new app that displays volume change on Android device

[thyttan]

Display the media volume of your android device when it's changed. A bar shows up at the top of your Bangles screen. (Needs recent Gadgetbridge nightly or stable ver. 85 once out)

Nice, looks good! Just a few little things

@thyttan:

Yes it felt unnecessary to bake in the hundred lines for the swipeOn functionality trough a require call.

Come to think of it - I didn't consider handing swipeOn-widgets.. But maybe it's covered anyway 🤔

No, I don't think swipeOn widgets are covered. If they are used by the app we currently end up replacing them with always showing widgets I believe.

Any idea of if there's a solution to discern the difference of if widgets are just hidden or are swipeOn-ed? I'm having trouble coming up with anything that's already available. We can always implement some identifying variable I guess though.

I kind of feel like skipping all this robust hiding widgets logic and just let widgets occasionally draw over the volume bar if they happen to do that.. 😅

Yeah I think that should be ok with your latest commit (1fa489b) too, nice idea

Yeah same - I think what we have now is ok and we can always address it if the widget drawing is a problem in the future. I can think of a way or two to address it but let's see if it's worth the complexity.

Happy to merge as-is, or if you want to back out any of those latest commits for doing some of this, go for it

Yeah I just reverted the widget handling stuff now. So happy to have it merged :)
