Plus42 Equations, Preview Release

[Thomas Okken]

They were supposed to provide easier means to type text, by automatically popping up the OS's on-screen keyboard when the ALPHA menu is active, or by capturing keystrokes from the hardware keyboard, if one is present. Android and iOS only.

The changes for iOS work fine, as far as I can tell, but the ones for Android don't; they work fine in the Android 10 simulator, but not at all on my Android 8.1 phone. Before getting sucked into another maelstrom of Android development hell (don't get me started), I decided to shelve the feature for the time being. Maybe I'll end up doing something like the DM42 alpha keyboard mode instead, I don't know yet, but for now, I'd rather not have this feature at all than have it badly.
