Widget doesn't indicate recording state

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The widget currently shows the MyTracks logo - it should instead show a record 
button, and while recording a stop button.

This is wrong.  The widget does indicate recording state.  There is some issue 
with your device.  Currently it changes from a grey arrow to a yellow arrow.  I 
played a bit with using a record and stop button but it looks odd.  A common 
feature of widgets is the logo of the app to identify it.  I think we should 
keep that.  I am going to mark this as closed as we do indicate the state.  
There is another issue which I will try to investigate with the other issue you 
opened.  In the mean time please review a very minor polish cl which makes our 
widget work on ics.

I argue that grey and yellow arrows are non-intuitive for knowing the state. 
Can we at least make the recording arrow red, which is more commonly associated 
with recording?

So the states would be
std/not recording: std icon
recording: red icon
?
[Want to make the icon's for me.  I am horrible at that stuff.]

not recording could be either grey or the regular one (I think grey makes a 
more clear distinction).
Sure, I can make the red icon.

And here's the red arrow.
