[aerogear-dev] Make MobileCore Init automatically called in Android SDK

Hi, Revisiting some Google and Firebase stuff Summers and I realized the Firebase Android SDK doesn’t need we do any init to the lib starts/be configured. TL;DR what Firebase does is uses a Content Provide[1] (not really created for this) as a trick to initialize the lib before the app starts Why Content provider? Because it has access to the applicationContext[2] and is called *before* all other Android kinds of stuff in the Android lifecycle (including Application) I’d like to do the same for our Android SDK and initialize the lib using the same trick so we can provide a MobileCore.getInstance() already configured with all the things the developer needs (Logger, HttpLayer, Mobile Services info, etc…) without need to create an application class or call MobileCore.init(context) anywhere and kill all static methods we have today in MobileCore It will also allow us to send the default metrics before the Android lifecycle starts the app and have some controls (when need) to know when the app is in background and foreground, listeners possible crashes and other things without the developer needs to call/configure anything. PS: This is will probably be the first step to kill the responsibility to the MobileCore instantiate the Service Modules[3] Any thoughts?
