FlexBox layout problems

[fennifith]

It seems that the button "links" occasionally have problems asserting their dimensions within the FlexBox RecyclerView layouts they're contained in...

• Occasionally, I've opened the about page to find that all of the links have decided to use the smallest width possible, and the button text has wrapped to multiple lines
• Most of the time a UserDialog is opened, the links recycler will not display a second line of items regardless of whether they have wrapped to another line, even though its height is wrap_content. Possibly related to Support RecyclerView of which height is wrap_content google/flexbox-layout#349.

Huh. Yeah, it looks like the AppWedge isn't quite built to work with less than four links. If it's possible for you to, err, find another two, then it might work... lol

Created #70 to track this; not a major amount of work to fix, but I know I'm not gonna get around to it today.

Yep, the wiki's a bit outdated right now; there were a lot of changes in the last update. I'll go over it all at some point & fix everything, but that's gonna take a while.

This app is in very early development, those fixes are not urgent. I'll can wait for the updates

I seem to have fixed one of these issues by re-using the layout manager across recycled views; this should hopefully fix the squashing issues on the licenses screen.

I'm not sure what has changed since this was created, but I can no longer reproduce the problems in the UserDialog either; perhaps it was another dependency causing those issues which was updated in 08e18e1. If I don't run into any other issues, I'll close this in the next release.
