reliable_background_location 0.1.0

Background location tracking on Android that keeps recording through Doze, screen-off, battery saver and process death, and reports refused foreground service starts instead of failing silently.

0.1.0

Initial release. Android only.

• start() returns a StartResult that distinguishes the reasons Android refuses a foreground service start, rather than throwing or failing silently.
• requestPermissions() prompts in the order Android accepts — foreground location and notifications first, then background location as a separate request, since from Android 11 the two cannot share one prompt.
• PermissionState separates canStart from isComplete, so a caller can tell "cannot track" from "will track until the app leaves the screen".
• Native buffering of fixes recorded while no Dart isolate is alive, drained through drainBuffered().
• sessionState persisted natively and returned in StartResult.recoveredSessionState after the OS restarts a killed service.
• Partial wakelock held for the session, so Doze does not suspend the isolate while the foreground service is up.
• Helpers for battery saver state and the vendor auto-start settings screens.

Verified on a physical device: live tracking, screen-off continuity, recovery of fixes buffered across process death, and START_STICKY service restart.
