* If the ManageExternalStorage permission has not been granted, introduce the request, particularly when accessing features that necessitate this permission, such as downloading ZIM files, selecting a ZIM file from storage via the file picker, and refreshing the list of available ZIM files in storage.
* We have introduced the option to disable external links for custom apps. If a custom app is configured not to display the external links popup, it will both hide the external links preference from settings and refrain from showing the external link popup when opening external links. Additionally, we have included relevant comments within the methods and code to provide developers with a clear understanding of the reasons behind these changes.
* Removed the unnecessary estimation matches call on `libkiwix`, as we do not need this since `libkiwix` can handle this automatically.
* Cancelled the previously running job if a new searchTerm is in progress; this will avoid unnecessary memory allocation and data load on libkiwix.
* Introduced a search placeholder for custom apps; if any custom app is configured not to show the title in the toolbar, it will display the search placeholder with a border. To implement this change, a layout has been added inside the toolbar.
* To enhance understanding of this change, proper comments have been added to the methods.
* We had restricted the toolbar click to the toolbar title. So, if the user clicked on the title, it would initiate the search. Now, we have removed the restriction of clicking only on the title. If the user taps anywhere on the toolbar except the menu items and hamburger, it will initiate the search.
* Implemented a debouncing mechanism to enhance the handling of search functionalities. This approach is employed to prevent unnecessary data loads from libkiwix, addressing the issue of crashes when users rapidly type and search for results.
* The Play Store highlighted the need to add "/" to the beginning of the `android:pathPattern`. As a result, we have now included "/" at the beginning of all `android:pathPattern` instances to ensure compatibility with the Play Store.
* Additionally, the `android:autoVerify="true"` attribute has been added to intent filters to verify domain ownership. This was identified as an issue by both the Play Store and the App Links Assistant tool in Android Studio.
* Previously, when exiting full-screen mode, the `WindowCompat.setDecorFitsSystemWindows` configuration was set to `false`, causing a blank space between the sidebar logo and the Bookmark item.
* This change sets the configuration to `true` when exiting full-screen mode to ensure proper adjustment of the sidebar content, eliminating the undesired blank space.
* The adjustment is necessary to maintain a seamless layout and appearance, particularly after transitioning from full-screen mode.
* This file, typically associated with Firebase, is unnecessary for our project since we do not utilize Firebase.
* However, the file is essential for publishing the application on the Play Store. The credentials for publishing are stored in this file during the publish CI process.
* To avoid any confusion, it is better to remove the content of this file.
* The `Config.kt` now holds the version information we can directly change the versionCode here and it will automatically replace in both gradle files.
* Removed duplicate version configurations from build.gradle files.
* The issue was caused by an unnecessary increment of the 'currentPiece' index in the onDone callback of the TextToSpeech engine. This double increment led to the skipping of lines. The redundant increment at the end of the method has been removed, ensuring that each line is read correctly.
