Add SDK version bypass in Rookie settings #293

Installing apps on the old Quest 1 is becoming increasingly difficult due to EOL support. Often you get the error message INSTALL_FAILED_DEPRECATED_SDK_VERSION, due to Quest 1 being on android 11 / SDK 29. Most apps can still be manually installed by using the command adb install --bypass-low-target-sdk-block yourincompatible.apk.

Two problems with this:

  1. A failed install still takes up space on your quest 1. And the only way of recovering this space is to do a full factory reset
  2. A lot of apps still work, they just need the bypass command to install.

Adding an option to the Rookie settings so that the app automatically adds this bypass flag would be greatly appreciated!
