dataprotect:

Added a component using AndroidKeyStore to protect user data.

// Create a Keystore and generate a key
val keystore: Keystore = Keystore("samples-dataprotect")
keystore.generateKey()

// Encrypt data
val plainText = "plain text data".toByteArray(StandardCharsets.UTF_8)
val encrypted = keystore.encryptBytes(plain)

// Decrypt data
val samePlainText = keystore.decryptBytes(encrypted)

concept-engine: Enhanced settings to cover most common WebView settings.
browser-engine-system:
- SystemEngineSession now provides a way to capture a screenshot of the actual content of the web page just by calling captureThumbnail
browser-session:
- Session exposes a new property called thumbnail and its internal observer also exposes a new listener onThumbnailChanged.
```
session.register(object : Session.Observer {
    fun onThumbnailChanged(session: Session, bitmap: Bitmap?) {
            // Do Something
    }
})
```
- SessionManager lets you notify it when the OS is under low memory condition by calling to its new function onLowMemory.
browser-tabstray:
- Now on BrowserTabsTray every tab gets is own thumbnail :)

support-ktx:

Now you can easily query if the OS is under low memory conditions, just by using isOSOnLowMemory() extension function on Context.

val shouldReduceMemoryUsage = context.isOSOnLowMemory()

if (shouldReduceMemoryUsage) {
    //Deallocate some heavy objects
}

View.dp is nowResource.pxtoDp.

// Before
toolbar.dp(104)

// Now
toolbar.resources.pxToDp(104)

samples-browser:
- Updated to show the new features related to tab thumbnails. Be aware that this feature is only available for systemEngine and you have to switch to the build variant systemEngine*.
