There was some confusion about the "SD Card" portion of the string.
Sometimes it will not store on the SD card, e.g. if the SD card is
not mounted, or inaccessible to F-Droid.
Change some "defaultValue"s
Key "theme": I also use the dark version of F-Droid but I think the most users would prefer the light version. This is also standard in the
most used apps on Android, I think, see GApps, Flym, K-9, Telegram, ...
Key "localRepoBonjour": I never used this function and I think it's better, if the user manually activates it when he wants to use it.
Key "localRepoHttps": I see no reason why it should not use https over http, it's better of security view, I think.
Key "cacheDownloaded": The most smartphones today have enough storage available to allow to enable this function. This would decrease the
traffic on both sides, as the user does not have to download a app and the F-Droid server does not have to send it multiple
times.
This is somehow related to #221, I think.

The error below was happening on my crappy slow phone, I suspect because
the database upgrade check was locking the database, while this was
scheduled and started running on a different thread. Given it is a very
low priority task (it notifies F-Droid if apps were installed by a method
other than F-Droid) it is now delayed by 10 seconds.

Use custom code rather than "Locale.forLanguageTag" (which is android-21
specific). Also fixed the actual setting of the language, by modifying
the code in FDroidApp to respect the country code (rather than just the
language code).
Android's lint will give warnings for all strings that are not translatable
or translated. Some strings like repo name/description and language codes
should never be translated. Here's how to officially mark as "do not
translate":
* for individual strings, include: translatable="false"
* for the entire file, name it: donottranslate.xml

Also forceably hid the "update all" button in the update tab.
This is because on my crapy LG Tracphone android-10 device, it is slow
enough that I can see that button appear and then disappear.
Also changed the way locales are loaded. Now it deals well with language
codes that are followed by country codes (e.g. "en-US" rather than just
"en").
Change client language from the app options (#155)
Bug: ActionBar Language does not change.
Edit: To make it more clear, you have to restart the app manually for the action bar language to be changed.

It does this by sending a HTTP POST request to /request-swap on the
swap server. That listens for a POST to this path, and responds by
popping open a confirmation message to the user on the server device.
The categories were previously selected in the Spinner, then passed
directly to the database. Once the categories became translated, this
meant we were sending the translated category to the database.
However, the database only knows about English categories, and so we
instead need to look up the English translation for the selected
category before passing to the database. This is done by keeping
a list of original category names which is indexed the same as the
translated ones.
