Android app whitelist/blacklist feature

[Eric Kuck]

A first pass that only works with GoBackend has just been pushed. Feel free
to make suggestions or requests. This is the first time I’ve used
databinding for more than just a findViewById substitute, so it’s very
possible I didn’t do something canonically.

All of that sounds right-on to me, and I think you're right that
ExcludedApplications is the better key.

(This also provides a good basis for later adding a
"ExcludeLocalNetwork" option.)
