[REQUEST] Support for Termux/Android

[blmvxer]

So I see the issue is with permissions

PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/proc/stat'

I can try working on a termux friendly approach here in a couple days.

@blmvxer Not sure why this is labeled a bug, I've never claimed BpyTOP have support for Android.

I think this is a bigger headache then you assume. First you would need to adapt psutil to work under Android.

Seems you would also need a rooted Android device to get past the permission errors.

And how did you do that?

@J053Fabi0 I think it was as easy as installing it with pip3 and then running it with tsu (which requires root access)
