Google Drive: use the new API #55

Closed mvysny closed 6 years ago

There is a new API baked directly in the Google Play service: https://github.com/googledrive/android-quickstart

I should take advantage of that new API since it will reduce the size of PhotoCloud APK significantly. Naturally, it requires Google Play so it won't work on Amazon-based devices, but I think Google Drive actually never worked on Amazon devices anyway, so there is no concern there.

The main page of the Drive API is here: https://developers.google.com/drive/android/

The new API can not access all files in user's Google Drive, and as such is useless: https://github.com/googledrive/android-quickstart/issues/18
