Shizuku+ Major Update & Compatibility Fixes

This release rolls up all changes from recent build iterations that suffered from launch crashes (due to ProGuard obfuscation) and compatibility issues (due to package renaming and provider authority conflicts). It represents a stable milestone with full backwards compatibility for original Shizuku applications.

🐛 Edit / Crash Release Notes from Previous Builds

The previous releases (r1637 through r1690) had the following critical issues that are now resolved:

• Mavericks ViewModel Crash: Release builds crashed instantly on launch (java.lang.IllegalArgumentException) because ProGuard/R8 was stripping the HomeViewModel companion factory. Fixed by adding aggressive @Keep annotations to prevent mangling of reflection metadata.
• Provider Authority Conflict: Previous attempts to support original Shizuku apps by declaring moe.shizuku.privileged.api.shizuku in the manifest led to INSTALL_FAILED_CONFLICTING_PROVIDER when installed alongside the original app. This conflicting authority has been removed.
• Sentry Vendor Diagnostic Crash: Early initialization crashes occurred on devices with strict hidden API restrictions (TCL/Oppo/Samsung) because Sentry was probing SystemProperties before the HiddenApiBypass was activated. The initialization sequence has been reordered to prevent this.

✨ Highlights Added in this Build

• Original Shizuku App Compatibility: Shizuku+ now explicitly delivers service binders directly to the internal ContentProviders of client apps using both the new and the legacy (rikka.shizuku.intent.extra.BINDER) intent keys. Apps compiled against the original moe.shizuku.privileged.api will work seamlessly.
• Seamless Auto-Update & Migration: Added a robust UpdateInstaller that detects signature mismatches or package differentiation errors during an update. If a conflict is found, it:
  1. Auto-exports your settings.
  2. Uses a detached Shizuku/Root shell script to uninstall the old app and install the new APK.
  3. Auto-grants critical permissions (POST_NOTIFICATIONS, WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS, SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW, GET_USAGE_STATS) post-install.
  4. Auto-imports your settings upon the next launch.
