LibWebView uses the Application object in WebContentClient.cpp, so we
need one to exist. It doesn't really do anything, since we never add
processes to it, but it just has to exist.
This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).

Instead of having an annoying loop that constantly reschedules a
Core::EventLoop trigger, have the ALooperEventLoopManager do it itself
in the did_post_event() function.
We cannot simply re-use the Unix implementation directly because that
implementation expects to actually be called all the time in order to
service timers. If you don't call its' pump() method, timers do not get
triggered. So, we do still need the seconary thread for Timers that was
added earlier.
This function used to live in AndroidPlatform.cpp, but was removed
during the transition to the new app. We still need to extract the
assets from the tarball that CMake creates. At least, until we come
up with a generic "Resource" concept in LibCore.
Timers run in their own thread, to take advantage of existing Java
Executor features. By hooking into ALooper, we can spin the main
Activity's UI thread event loop without causing a fuss, or spinning the
CPU by just polling our event loop constantly.
This template app from Android Studio should hopefully be more fun to
work on than the Qt wrapped application we were using before. :^)
It currently builds the native code using gradle rules, and has a stub
WebViewImplementationNative class that will wrap a c++ class of the same
name that inhertis from WebView::ViewImplementation. Spawning helper
processes and creating proper views in Kotlin is next on the list.
