## Summary
* This PR introduces a migration from binary file storage to JSON-based
storage for application settings, state, and various credential stores.
This improves readability, maintainability, and allows for easier manual
configuration editing.
* Benefits:
- Settings files are now JSON and can be easily read/edited manually
- Easier to inspect application state and settings during development
- JSON structure is more flexible for future changes
* Drawback: around 15k of additional flash usage
* Compatibility: Seamless migration preserves existing user data
## Additional Context
1. New JSON I/O Infrastructure files:
- JsonSettingsIO: Core JSON serialization/deserialization logic using
ArduinoJson library
- ObfuscationUtils: XOR-based password obfuscation for sensitive data
2. Migrated Components (now use JSON storage with automatic binary
migration):
- CrossPointSettings (settings.json): Main application settings
- CrossPointState (state.json): Application state (open book, sleep
mode, etc.)
- WifiCredentialStore (wifi.json): WiFi network credentials (Password
Obfuscation: Sensitive data like WiFi passwords, uses XOR encryption
with fixed keys. Note: This is obfuscation, not cryptographic security -
passwords can be recovered with the key)
- KOReaderCredentialStore (koreader.json): KOReader sync credentials
- RecentBooksStore (recent.json): Recently opened books list
3. Migration Logic
- Forward Compatibility: New installations use JSON format
- Backward Compatibility: Existing binary files are automatically
migrated to JSON on first load
- Backup Safety: Original binary files are renamed with .bak extension
after successful migration
- Fallback Handling: If JSON parsing fails, system falls back to binary
loading
4. Infrastructure Updates
- HalStorage: Added rename() method for backup operations

## Summary
* **What is the goal of this PR?** (e.g., Implements the new feature for
file uploading.)
- Allows back button to be held to escape boot loops when reader
activity crashes and device attempts to boot to previous state
- Reduces the need of removing SD card and access to another device to
delete the `/.crosspoint/state.bin`
* **What changes are included?**
- Back button can be held while booting to boot to home screen
- Update of User Guide section to include this feature
## Additional Context
* Add any other information that might be helpful for the reviewer
(e.g., performance implications, potential risks,
specific areas to focus on).

When picking a random sleep image from a set of custom images, compare
the randomly chosen index against a cached value in settings. If the
value matches, use the next image (rolling over if it's the last image).
Cache the chosen image index to settings in either case.
## Summary
Implements a tweak on the custom sleep image feature that ensures that
the user gets a new image every time the device goes to sleep.
This change adds a new setting (perhaps there's a better place to cache
this?) that stores the most recently used file index. During picking the
random image index, we compare this against the random index and choose
the next one (modulo the number of image files) if it matches, ensuring
we get a new image.
## Additional Context
As mentioned, I used settings to cache this value since it is a
persisted store, perhaps that's overkill. Open to suggestions on if
there's a better way.
## Summary
* This PR drastically reshapes the structure of the codebase, moving
from the concept of "Screens" to "Activities", restructing the files and
setting up the concept of subactivities.
* This should help with keep the main file clean and containing all
functional logic in the relevant activity.
* CrossPointState is now also a global singleton which should help with
accessing it from within activities.
## Additional Context
* This is probably going to be a bit disruptive for people with open
PRs, sorry 😞
