Description of the changes in your PR

This PR replaces the switch preference to enable/disable all search suggestions with a multiselect one, so that the user can choose which types of search suggestions he likes: local, remote, both, none. Since the previous preference stored a boolean while the new one stores a Set<String>, I had to create a migration function and call it in NewPipeSettings.init(). If the previous value was true, both local and remote suggestions are activated, otherwise they are both deactivated. I testes this and it works both when updating the app and when importing a database with the old setting.

Fixes the following issue(s)

Testing apk

@anpic could you test if this option suits you?

I think we should also allow the user to stop showing local search suggestions. E.g. when showing something to another persion and using the search, one might not want to expose the search history.

What about replacing the current on-off option in settings with a spinner containing "All", "Only remote", "Only local", "None"?

I just checked to see what a spinner is. Wouldn't it be weird to have one odd spinner menu standing out when the rest of the settings all contain pop up dialogues?

That's a spinner? The Android documentation is misleading, then. It looked like a Kitkat option selector, there.

@opusforlife2 no, that's not a spinner, that's a multiselect menu, I said spinner just to show that I wanted to make the menu entry contain multiple things (probably also because no other name came to my mind ;-) )

This PR is blocked by the settings migration code, as explained by @TobiGr above, so his pr needs to be merged before

  • First run migrations, then call the various setDefaultValues, since the latter requires the correct types. There was a crash with the "Content settings"' setDefaultValues call, on the search suggestion setting, since the boolean type, used on dev, does not match the new type of the (default) value, that is StringSet. Running the migrations before setting default values makes sense, so that's what I did.
  • Show a snackbar for a suggestion error instead of the error panel.
  • Do not show any error for interrupted I/O. Interrupted I/Os are expected since when the user inputs something new the previous suggestion fetch is interrupted.

I tested updating in the three ways possible (suggestions enabled/disabled in the before app and no before app installed at all) and for all of them I tried the 4 combinations of the search suggestions setting, everything worked fine.
As always, here are the test apks; before.apk is from dev, and after.apk is from this PR; you could change the search suggestions setting, then try to update from before.apk to after.apk.
