Add EtchDroid metadata (new app)

Davide Depau requested to merge (removed):etchdroid into master
  • The app complies with the inclusion criteria
  • The original app author has been notified (and supports the inclusion) (I'm the author)
  • All related fdroiddata and rfp issues have been referenced in this merge request
  • Builds with fdroid build

NOTE

It does not build yet on my machine, but it should be almost fine. I'm still submitting this so someone can see my meta and tell me what's wrong, then I'll patch it and squash it.

About the app

The app is a simple tool to write raw and DMG images to USB drives from Android, using the API only (no root).

Build issues

I did everything described in CONTRIBUTING.md. The APK is built fine, however at the end I get this message:

$ ANDROID_NDK=/home/depau/Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle fdroid build -v -l eu.depau.etchdroid
[...]

I think it's a problem with my setup (I'm on Arch Linux). I'll spawn a Debian/Ubuntu VM later, try again and update this MR.
