Substratum Release 711 (May Update)

Migration to Manage Space Integration: What this means is that you can no longer clear data of substratum, but you will get a better view to see what to clear specifically. This place will be developed more in the upcoming updates. Huge thanks to +Ivan Iskandar again for working with me on this new implementation - one might call it a Telegram design layout!

This means that to clear your data you have two options:

- Settings -> Apps -> Substratum -> Storage -> Manage Space -> *

- Substratum -> Settings -> Manage Storage Usage -> *

Migration to Weak Referencing: This is more of a backend thing within the inner workings of how Substratum works, but when a configuration change occurs, with our WeakReference fusion of AsyncTasks, we are able to achieve fewer FCs and more stability throughout the app.

No, Icon Packs aren't coming, just yet: The security patch brings a TI62 update which contains all our necessary fixes to enable Icon Packs, however since it's still under heavy experimental testing, we are not officially endorsing the feature at all yet.

Resource Cleanup: To all Substratum OSS contributors, we have cleaned up a bunch of resources in the /res folder, ditching the idea of low-level API folders to separate specific layouts or drawables. We also cleaned out a few References to call a centralized function with different parameters rather than our previous implementation. Developers can easily workaround these new updates.

Showcase fixes: Previously on an orientation configuration change, the adapter view will not align properly after switching planes. This has been rectified by refreshing the activity (not consuming the configuration change) and the layouts are all working.
