Distribute Magisk directly with Magisk Manager APK. The APK will
contain all required binaries and scripts for installation and
uninstallation. App versions will now align with Magisk releases.
Extra effort is spent to make the APK itself also a flashable zip that
can be used in custom recoveries, so those still prefer to install
Magisk with recoveries will not be affected with this change.
As a bonus, this makes the whole installation and uninstallation
process 100% offline. The existing Magisk Manager was not really
functional without an Internet connection, as the installation process
was highly tied to zips hosted on the server.
An additional bonus: since all binaries are now shipped as "native
libraries" of the APK, we can finally bump the target SDK version
higher than 28. The target SDK version was stuck at 28 for a long time
because newer SELinux restricts running executables from internal
storage. More details can be found here: https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/1072
The target SDK bump will be addressed in a future commit.

Previously, Magisk uses persist or cache for storing modules' custom
sepolicy rules. In this commit, we significantly broaden its
compatibility and also prevent mounting errors.
The persist partition is non-standard and also critical for Snapdragon
devices, so we prefer not to use it by default.
We will go through the following logic to find the best suitable
non-volatile, writable location to store and load sepolicy.rule files:
Unencrypted data -> FBE data unencrypted dir -> cache -> metadata -> persist
This should cover almost all possible cases: very old devices have
cache partitions; newer devices will use FBE; latest devices will use
metadata FBE (which guarantees a metadata parition); and finally,
all Snapdragon devices have the persist partition (as a last resort).
