Added a screen to allow users to compose the key strokes to send. This is necessary because the keyboard that appears on the mouse pad screen does not have the voice to text microphone button on my phone. Even if it could be made to appear as it does on my tablet, some kind of text buffering is necessary because the voice text will change its mind.
## Summary
A basic mouse receiver implementation. You can now control your Android Device remotely which might be useful when it's connected to a bigger screen (via HDMI).
Unfortunately Android does not provide moving mouse by software (other than adb and without root). Therefore this implementation uses Android [AccessibilityService](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/accessibilityservice/AccessibilityService) to create an ImageView Overlay as mouse pointer and simulate touch gestures.
This is quite hacky but I think the best way to do so.
## Demo
Here is a small demo
This plugin lets you monitor the signal strength of the mobile connection of the phone,
so you may know if opening a hotspot is viable, or figuring out why a connection dropped while hotspot-ing.
Adds new functionality to the MousepadPlugin to accept data via Intent and pass them on to the host as keystrokes via the existing MousePadPlugin.PACKET_TYPE_MOUSEPAD_REQUEST PackageType
eg. to easily send OTP codes from the phone to the Desktop
Changes:
1. In the menu, the design of the selected item was changed, the icon of the current device was added and the image was removed
2. Changed the accent color to orange
3. Separators have been removed from almost all lists
4. The design of the selected item was changed in the menu, the icon of the current device was added and the image was removed
4. Changed the color of the toolbar to white or black (depending on the theme)
The key is a sha256 of both devices' certificates. Both should generate the
same key, so hey user can check they are pairing against the right device.
Thanks Matthias Gerstner <mgerstner@suse.de> for reporting this.
- Due to Android 10 restrictions, background tasks can no longer launch activities
- Post a notification instead when a URL is received and KDE Connect is not in foreground

## Summary
Fixes#5
BUG: 417419](https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=417419)
This patch introduces a workaround to access the restricted clipboard in Android X.
Clipboard synchronisation in KDE Connect was one of the killer features before Android X. An action button is added in the persistent foreground notification **Send Clipboard** which adds the ability to send the clipboard using a small workaround. Clipboard Synchronisation works as usual in lower Android Versions.
This is a very convenient workaround for sending clipboard quickly as it does not requires to open the app. Floating Activity is quite handy for quick actions.
## Details of the workaround
### ClipboardFloatingActivity
* This activity is only executed in Android X.
* This is transparent, accesses the clipboard when in focus.
* Sends a `NetworkPacket` containing *text* and *timestamp*.
* When the packet has been sent, it pops up a toast with a success message.
* Automatically closes after the showing the Toast.
### Reverted changes for Android X.
* Changes done in commits 54be4a1a99 and 9f3b75b748 have been reverted.
* These changes are not required anymore as the workaround for clipboard sync works.
The action button in the notification for **Send Clipboard** is not added in the lower versions of Android. **It is only added in Android X**.
**Two way sync is working in Android X with this patch. Sync works normally in lower Android versions.**
## Test Plan
### Before:
Clipboard from PC to Phones were synchronised but Clipboard of phones didn't get synchronised with the PC.
### After:
The action button is up in Android X while using other apps.
After clicking the button, a cute Toast appears with the message *Clipboard sent*
I think this is one of the best workarounds available to make this awesome plugin work.
