This is the remaining gruntwork of #1276. I believe that only leaves networkmgr.lua and filemanagersearch.lua, which will require a little more thought.
our network manager script isn't the beauty of the code base.
However, this fixes a case where it would crash the reader when an
external command fails.
fixes#1279.
and remove the wifi toggler on the footer of each menu page,
so that network status is only checked (currently with the stdout of ip cmd)
when navigating to the "Network settings" submenu instead of checking
on each menu popup.
This is a major overhaul of the hardware abstraction layer.
A few notes:
General platform distinction happens in
frontend/device.lua
which will delegate everything else to
frontend/device/<platform_name>/device.lua
which should extend
frontend/device/generic/device.lua
Screen handling is implemented in
frontend/device/screen.lua
which includes the *functionality* to support device specifics.
Actually setting up the device specific functionality, however,
is done in the device specific setup code in the relevant
device.lua file.
The same goes for input handling.
