Release Alpha v0.4: New Android App, better AI, stock building, more menus, ...

This release includes several new features and bugfixes including

• A new and completely rebuild Android App. Special thanks go to @tom-pratt who developed most of it! The new UI doesn't look like the original one you're used from the PC game but was adapted to fit to Android devices. Please note that the UI is, as always, not completely finished and will be subject to change.
• The AI opponents have improved a lot again. The AI is now using pioneers to expand its territory faster.
• The stock building has been added. You can now store materials in the stock and configure what to stock either globally (via the menu known from the original game) or locally when selecting the stock building and configuring it there.
• AI uses the new stock building to store gold and with this, improve its offensive combat strength.
• You can now configure the tools and weapons to be produced manually as well. The system will automatically produce the tools needed to create required workers. But if you specify a fixed number of tools manually, those will be produced first. If you specify a distribution for the tools, this will be considered with the lowest priority to ensure all your workers get their tools.
• The menu to see how many settlers of each type you have, has been added.
• The sound has been improved a lot in the desktop version of the game.
• much more...
