localhost:8888 allows access to logs without Tor: let's announce that. #289

My tor browser[1] failed accessing Haven's logs[2] on the onion server hosted by "Orbot: proxy with tor" [3]. On the point of reporting this, I discovered4 that Haven's servers was also accessible on localhost:8888. Let's add that in the documentation and in the help text hovering in the app.

[1]: linux64-7.5.3_en-US https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html [2]: 0.1.0-RC-1 installed with google play on android 4.1.1, and also on another phone, on android 6.0 [3]: 16.0.0-RC-2-multi-SDK16 also installed with google play on android 4.1.1, and also on another phone, on android 6.0

We are re-working the Tor support so that you no longer need the Orbot app as an external dependency, using this library: https://github.com/thaliproject/Tor_Onion_Proxy_Library/

I appreciate your changes to the text, and we'll definitely find a way to communicate the fact that you can access the remote web interface via other browsers, as well.
