Once plugins integrate changes for `TermuxCrashUtils.onPostLogCrash()`, they will send the `ACTION_NOTIFY_APP_CRASH` broadcast when an uncaught exception is caught by `CrashHandler`. If `TermuxActivity` is in foreground, then it will receive the broadcast and notify user of the crash by reading it from the crash log file without the user having to restart termux app to be notified.
This starts the support for adb, root and other custom runners for shell commands. Previously only terminal and background tasks in app shells were supported.
`TERMUX_SERVICE.EXTRA_BACKGROUND` and `RUN_COMMAND_SERVICE.EXTRA_BACKGROUND` extras have been deprecated and instead respective `EXTRA_RUNNER` extra keys should be used. Currently supported extra values are `terminal-session` and `app-shell`. In future, `adb-shell` and `root-shell` are planned to be supported as well.
The `TermuxAppSharedProperties.properties` will exist in `termux-shared` library and only the single static instance will be reloaded whenever needed, instead of different activities and services maintaining their own instances. The classes in `termux-shared` library will also get access to the properties for their own needs.
The night mode set in `TermuxApplication` and terminal rows set in `TermuxService` will no longer require loading props from disk.
Updating `allow-external-apps` value will now require restarting termux or running `termux-reload-settings` since value will no longer be loaded from disk every time.
MONITOR_PHANTOM_PROCS will only be shown in Android 12+ devices and will be marked "<unsupported>" if its not supported in current android build. It will show in Termux Settings->About->Device Info->Software and in reports. Flag is available on Pixel Android 12L beta 3 and Android 13. Check FeatureFlagUtils for more details.
Getting supported feature flags and their values is done through reflection on android "android.util.FeatureFlagUtils" class and requires bypassing android hidden API restrictions.

Activity will only be recreated when `termux-reload-settings` is run or `night-mode` config does not equal current system mode when TermuxActivity is initially started. Running `termux-reload-settings` can cause some problems if some variable whose state should be maintained or reset is not being done so correctly, like termux session shortcuts weren't before 4fd48a5a. It requires further testing and any bugs should be reported.
With this commit, activities will automatically change theme between day/night if `night-mode` `termux.properties` is not set or is set to `system` without requiring app restart.
Dialog theming will be fully added in a later commit and may currently be in an inconsistent state or have crashes.
The `uiMode` has been removed from `configChanges` of `TermuxActivity`, this may cause termux app to restart if samsung DEX mode is changed, if it does, then users should report it so that it can be fixed by re-adding the value and ignoring the change inside `TermuxActivity.onConfigurationChanged()`. The docs don't state if its necessary. Check related pull request #1446.
Running `termux-reload-settings` will also restart `TermuxActivity`, the activity data should be preserved.
This will not break existing `use-black-ui` settings for users and it will automatically be converted to `night-mode` when properties are loaded from disk but a deprecation message will be logged.
This `night-mode` key can be used to set the day/night theme variant for activities used by termux app and its plugin. The user can set a string value to `true` to force use dark variant of theme, `false` to force use light variant of theme or `system` to automatically set theme based on current system settings. The default value is still `system`. The app must be restarted for changes to take effect for existing activities, including main terminal `TermuxActivity`.
This is required since "theme != night mode". In future custom theme or color support may be provided that will have both dark and night modes for the same theme.
