Summary: Android has a rate limit for updating notifications which was reduced from 50 to 10 updates/sec since Nougat. The share plugin updates the progress every time the percentage changes. The final notification update which makes the notification removable, is ignored if this happens more than 10 times in a second. This patch reduces the progress updates to a maximum of 10 times per second.
