The app should be accessible offline #118

This is one of the primary requirements.

We should be able to download the app in some way into the tablet, in order not to need any more internet access.

Partially addressed as the app is now accessible on a local server (test only).

The solution retained is to make the app automatically sync with the DB when it is connected to the internet, at boot time (when you launch the app is more appropriate).

This is implemented via the local storage of the tablet, made available through the mobile-gwt api (somewhat similar to the mgwt library already in use, with less features but this single one). The implementation is also similar to the browser storage api, but it may hold more than 5Mo of data, which is needed to fulfil our requirements.
