- compare against new byte[] array as a quick tell, since when streaming from a partition with an unsigned image "signature" would of course read without issue but then remain filled by zero padding, resulting in the following:
java.io.IOException: unexpected end-of-contents marker
at org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1InputStream.readObject(Unknown Source:14)
at com.topjohnwu.signing.SignBoot$BootSignature.<init>(SignBoot.java:235)

Added "endless" scrolling support
- this is done in order to display everything very swiftly and load as user needs it
- for the most part we'll download only ~10 items and load the rest as scroll progresses, this accomplishes the illusion that whole list is being populated
Added sections and updated repo view
Previously, we use either BroadcastReceivers or Activities to receive
messages from our native daemon, but both have their own downsides.
Some OEMs blocks broadcasts if the app is not running in the background,
regardless of who the caller is. Activities on the other hand, despite
working 100% of the time, will steal the focus of the current foreground
app, even though we are just doing some logging and showing a toast.
In addition, since stubs for hiding Magisk Manager is introduced, our
only communication method is left with the broadcast option, as
only broadcasting allows targeting a specific package name, not a
component name (which will be obfuscated in the case of stubs).
To make sure root requests will work on all devices, Magisk had to do
some experiments every boot to test whether broadcast is deliverable or
not. This makes the whole thing even more complicated then ever.
So lets take a look at another kind of component in Android apps:
ContentProviders. It is a vital part of Android's ecosystem, and as far
as I know no OEMs will block requests to ContentProviders (or else
tons of functionality will break catastrophically). Starting at API 11,
the system supports calling a specific method in ContentProviders,
optionally sending extra data along with the method call. This is
perfect for the native daemon to start a communication with Magisk
Manager. Another cool thing is that we no longer need to know the
component name of the reciever, as ContentProviders identify themselves
with an "authority" name, which in Magisk Manager's case is tied to the
package name. We already have a mechanism to keep track of our current
manager package name, so this works out of the box.
So yay! No more flaky broadcast tests, no more stupid OEMs blocking
broadcasts for some bizzare reasons. This method should in theory
work on almost all devices and situations.
Running broadcast tests from the app does not accurately verifies
whether the broadcasts can be delivered when the app is not running in
the foreground, which is why we are running the test.
The only sane way to verify broadcasts is to trigger the broadcast test
directly from the daemon on boot complete. If it is not deliverable,
then activity mode shall be chosen.
In the meantime, cleanup AndroidManifest.xml
- `!= remain` shouldn't indicate "not signed", it should indicate a read error as with `!= hdr.length`
- attempt to catch unsigned images at signature read, before they make it to `BootSignature bootsig = new BootSignature(signature);` and result in the following:
java.io.IOException: unexpected end-of-contents marker

at com.topjohnwu.signing.SignBoot$BootSignature.<init>(SignBoot.java:230)

- change to $TMPDIR in addon.d.sh since recovery addon.d-v1 backup + restore leaves you in /tmp/addon.d which the restore then deletes, which would break $BOOTSIGNER execution with the following:
libc: Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV), code 1 (SEGV_MAPERR), fault addr 0x0 in tid 1078 (main), pid 1078 (main)
Segmentation fault
- also move $BOOTSIGNER execution to after `cd $MAGISKBIN` to ensure it's in a working directory in all cases
- addon.d.sh data mount wasn't doing anything since /data has to already be mounted for the script to be running, so move it into /system/addon.d/99-magisk.sh stub script where it might be useful on recoveries that don't mount /data initially
Fixes#2013
