Find Alternative to SweetBlue about asteroidossync

[jrtberlin]

It seems like RxAndroidBle could be a replacement. However, the interface design and the scope of the lib differ from SweetBlue and changes scattered through AsteroidOSSync are necessary.

This looks great! I guess that no matter what lib we find we will have to change code scattered through AsteroidOSSync.

My idea would be to implement our own BleManager with a similar interface and call the new library from there. This would have the benefit that we could keep the maintenance low with future changes to ble libraries and modularize the project a bit more.

Mhhh, I wonder if this would be the right abstraction... Maybe it is. Otherwise, SynchronizationService was meant to be an abstraction for the rest of the source code, I'm not sure whether we really ever managed to achieve this but well... :)

I think Nordics BLE library might be a better fit for our application architecture. But we would have to find our own solution or another lib for device scanning.
