v0.3.1: tag_name: v0.3.1
body: ## v0.3.1 : Streaming is here!

Hello everyone, here's yet a new KawAnime's update! This one includes lots of new things but the most important is that *__streaming__* is now possible! Check the *__New__* features list.

###### Shout out to @DeltaEvo for its original streaming implementation. This update would not be there without his help. 
 
 
I take this opportunity to ask you guys this: If you like the app and you know some coding, please consider contributing. There are lots of things I'd love to implement in KawAnime but I now have way less time than before to work on the app so contributors really are welcome!

### New
* 🔥 ___Streaming___. 🔥
  * Whether you have the episode you want to watch or not, it does not matter, you can now watch it directly in KawAnime! Just click the _watch_ button, __drag and drop__ the torrent / video file onto the app or simply __paste a torrent magnet__ in the app to watch the episode, it's that simple!  
  * Go to the streaming page in the menu to search, browse and watch almost any episode from any anime.
  * Check you settings to tell the app how you like to watch your animes.
  * You can ask to watch an anime from the "Releases" page or your "_Local_" lists.
  * Streaming uses __torrent__ so be sure to enable a VPN if you are worried about being tracked.

* Video player. You can now watch an anime inside KawAnime by dropping the file in the app of simply from the __Local__ page as usual. Just be sure to toggle that "Inside" button.
* You can now choose where to install the app on setup.


### Removed
* Downloader will now only show the magnet modal.


### Fixed
* Fix downloader to use the right quality
* Fix a bug that would make the app freeze when directly going to the news page.
* Improved the way the app fetches the new release so that it does not take hours.
* Improved offline behavior of the app.
* Fixed toolbar height problem introduced in 0.3.0.
