Ask user to specify level of filtering on the networks they're using

[graphiclunarkid]

As a report-writer I want to know the level of filtering that was in force on the networks monitored by users of the android app so that I can decide whether each URL was blocked or not.

• App users can select from four filtering options against each network connection: None, Default, Other and Unknown.
• The default selection is blank.
• If the network to which an interface is connected changes, the user is prompted to set the filtering in force on this new network.
• The app remembers the filtering settings for each network, and when interfaces connect to a remembered network, the app restores the setting automatically.
• The app reports the filtering setting to the API along with the network information.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENT (not part of this story)

Itemise the actual settings for each network, and when we recognise the network to which an interface has connected, fetch these options from the server and insert them into the control. This will let us be more specific than "other" for filter settings other than the defaults.

Made some changes to start to automatically detect this, will add a user override soon

Would you like a new field to hold the filtering level on /response/httpt? It could be a useful thing to be able to use when reporting. Also, what method are you using to detect this? It could be handy when we're changing filter settings on the a&a lines.

It's horrible, it hits reddit.com to see if it's super strict then reddit.com/r/nsfw to see if it's kinda strict.

Once we have a baseline for strictness etc we can extend the canary list in the rules file and do it properly.
