3.0 WIP 22: Tag Editor

Its been a few weeks since I've posted anything so I thought I would do a quick update on the current progress.  Up until last week, I had made pretty good progress on the tag editor and file deletion, but i was waiting on google to release a stable version of some of their libraries.  They finally did that so I spent the last week upgrading 3.0 to use androidx/jetpack.  The only issue i am seeing so far is a fairly large left hand margin in the preference screen, but i will worry about fixing that later.

Most of the code for the tag editor and file deletion are already written, I just need to put all that code into jobs for the new WorkManager google introduced.

Here is the basic layout of the tag editor (still needs tweaking):



One other thing to note is i made some backend changes to the tagging code to support writing to the composer and lyrics tags, so I do plan on adding that to the UI sometime soon.

Realistically I think Alpha 5 should be ready in about 2 weeks.

3.4.0

Plans for 3.4 changed a bit when google announced they will be hiding apps on newer versions of android if they dont target the newer sdks.  GMMP always tries to target one of the more recent versions of android, but the unlocker has no need for that since its essentially just a license key.  As of May 1st the unlocker will be hidden on newer versions of android to those who have not already purchased.  Because of this, the focus of 3.4 was to get in app purchases working to allow users to buy the full version after May 1st.  There is a new 'Purchase' section in the settings where the unlocker can now be purchased. One other change in 3.4 is the support for the Android 13+ media controls.  They changed around how to customize them, so that is reflected in a new 'Media Controls' section of the settings. The language can also be changed for just GMMP via the system settings The changelog itself is fairly small but I did a large update of all the libraries / dependencies t
