Followup to #7306.
As discussed there, the only way to make everybody happy is to make 'em context-aware. At which point, trying to make the fact that it's a *device* rotation and not a *content* one come across in the icon design loses its interest, and would actually only further muddy the issue.
So, these are similar is spirit to the traditional rotation icons in pretty much anything that can rotate text content, with a special inspiration from the Kindle 4 & PocketBook UI.
Fix#7429
* Add a new socketutil module with a few helper functions that allow us to:
* Always use a sane User-Agent (previously, only Wikipedia did so)
* Set timeouts in an almost sane manner. Doing it explicitly prevents an interaction with KOSync that does crazy stuff I don't even want to try to understand.
* Unified said timeouts based on the request's intended usage (except for Wikipedia, which already had meaningful timeout values).
* Stopped using LuaSec directly, LuaSocket defers to LuaSec sanely on its own. Everything now transparently supports HTTPS without code duplication.
* Re-implement the PB fb fixup insanity
It's apparently still necessary on a number of devices.
Fix#7072
* Bump base
(Fix FBInk on the same devices, for another reason).
* Unify logging with AutoSuspend (e.g., keep ourselves to showing the delay in seconds, not the raw timestamp, as that's way harder to interpret, and the RTC module and/or logger will do that for us when the time comes).
* Speaking of, minor revamp of RTC related logging to make it more human-readable.
* On Kobo, if we hit the unexpected wakeup limit, re-engage AutoSuspend's *suspend* check, so that the device has a chance to poweroff instead of being kept awake.
* Hold "Wi-Fi connection" to show network connection options.
* Honor backend connections (e.g., if wpa_supplicant found a matching AP in its own config first).
* When user clicks "Wi-Fi connection" in menu, only prompt if state is ambiguous.
* Screensaver: Unbreak screensaver_stretch_images
We don't have real ternary operators in Lua, if the second argument evaluates to false, it doesn't work.
Invert the test to avoid this pitfall.

Fix#7402, regression since #7371
* Free a few similar constructs (incidentally, some of 'em also tweaked in #7371 ^^).
* LuaSettings/DocSettings: Updated readSetting API to allow proper initialization to default.
Use it to initialize tables, e.g., fixing corner-cases in readerFooter that could prevent settings from being saved.
(Fixes an issue reported on Gitter).
* LuaSettings/DocSettings: Add simpler API than the the flip* ones to toggle boolean settings.
* Update LuaSettings/DocSettigns usage throughout the codebase to use the dedicated boolean methods wher appropriate, and clean up some of the more mind-bending uses.
* FileChooser: Implement an extended default exclusion list (fix#2360)
* ScreenSaver: Refactor to avoid the pile of kludges this was threatening to become. Code should be easier to follow and use, and fallbacks now behave as expected (fix#4418).
* OPDS: Don't save an empty username.
That causes LuaSockets to try Basic auth, which is useless (and may or may not be problematic for some servers).
* Attempt to explicitly request non-compressed content.
Some servers may still refuse to obey, though.
They're breaking RFC2616 (a.k.a. HTTP/1.1) by doing so, though, meh.
* Let LuaSocket do its job.
It already handles setting up the Host header, as well as Basic authentication if both username & password are set.
Instead of piggybacking on InputContainer's onInput trickery for hold_input & tap_input.
Also, don't flag the buttons from that InputDialog as vsync, because that was stupid ;).
Fix#7357
