The lock was leaking when sometimes the OS would call onStop() without
isFinishing() being true, then never use the fragment again. And never
call onDestroy(). Releasing the lock in onStop and regetting it in
onResume seems to fix, but this needs some testing and time.
The problem appears to be that the new <vector/> .xml drawable has a
greater height for purposes of layout. Specifying dimensions seems to be
the way to go, though devices may vary.
I don't know why, but in my tests the relay seems to be delivering
messages to the wrong device. The linux device detects this. It used to
assert, but now just drops the message. If this is happening on Android
it might be why I'm seeing crashes...

reverse change in 19fa3fce05 (April 4
2019) making MainActivity singleTask, which caused starting the app to
launch the gamesList screen rather than the game that had been open when
it was moved to background. Now it's "standard," and I have to hope that
doesn't produce new problems. As I wrote back then, we'll see. More
quickly I hope.
Required redoing how I invoke the NDK. The limititations I had to hack
around before seem fixed, so this is probably better. But there will be
glitches. :-)
The common code truncates to 255 *bytes*, not chars, so this isn't even
right, but at least for ascii users it'll make it less likely that
what's typed doesn't all get sent. The right fix is to change the format
to not limit sent str len to 255 bytes. See commit 512a8e1af.
Len byte was limited to 255, but would get clipped (masked with 0xFF)
then all the string data would get written. So on receipt, the clipped
length was taken to be that of the string data, with the rest of the
string to be interpreted as something else. An array index, in this
case.
