Remove databinding entirely.
Databinding was a terrible idea for Auxio. I rarely leveraged it, and
when I did, it produced messy code and bloated build times. Dumpster it
for just viewbinding, which is good. This reduces building times by
nearly 2/3, and generally makes the codebase more coherent and usable.
Create a custom view for rounded images, making them more nuanced in
the process.
The previous method for applying rounded images in-app was generally
clunky and fragile. Introduce a new custom view that actually takes a
cornerRadius attribute from the ImageView itself that then applies it
whenever the user enables the setting. This also allows rounded images
to be more nuanced, as typical 8dp elevation can be used for small
views and a more fitting 16dp radius can be used for large views.
Use Slider and FloatingActionbutton in the playback view. This is not
because I wanted to, but because there were insane bugs on Lollipop
devices that stemmed from them being unable to load complex selector
resources.
Use Material typography everywhere instead of using a mix of AppCompat
and Material styles. This is still based around MaterialComponents
though, as I'm not fully sure how to wield the new Material3 text
styles yet. This also completely phases out inter bold.
Give up and add more material elements such as neutral toolbar colors
and rounded corners. This is largely for stylistic cohesion. I will
keep rounded corners to a minimum though, rounding album covers is a
crime against humanitity.
Refactor the styling again to make all styles start with the Auxio
prefix. Also try to phase out the usage of layout_width and
layout_height in most places, since those can cause a lot of
frustration if they aren't used in the layout they are expected in.
Completely refactor the detail module. This is for a few reasons:
- Prevent data regeneration every time a fragment re-creates.
- Make DetailModel follow the customs of other ViewModels.
- Simplify layouts into a single detail item to reduce code
complexity.
Currently sorting doesn't work, but that is still being worked out
as the legacy SortMode continues to be phased out of Auxio.
