Library for unique identification of an Android device. Provides also a backup solution

## Overview
TBD

## Release Notes:
0.0.2

* A secure preference store is used for holding the device specific data.
* Backup manager helper added for backing up preferences and sqlite databases.

0.0.1

* Initial import to github. I've added several ways to identify an android device.
* device specific data is written to shared preferences.

## Usage

To make use of the device identification you only need to add an `DeviceIdentityProvider` to your activity:

```java
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    ...

identityProvider = DeviceIdentityProvider.getInstance(this);

// force backup for new device immediately
    if (identityProvider.isNewDevice()) {
        BackupManager backupManager = new BackupManager(this);
        backupManager.dataChanged();
    }

...
}
```

If you want automatically backup your application data to android backup service you need to add some snippets to the applications manifest an an activity:
 
```xml
<application android:backupAgent="com.thomashaertel.device.backup.SimpleBackupAgent" android:allowBackup="true" ...>
    <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.backup.api_key" android:value="your-api-key" />
    ...
</application>
```

```java
@Override
protected void onStop() {
    // allow backup authorized devices only
    if (identityProvider.isAuthorizedDevice()) {
        BackupManager backupManager = new BackupManager(this);
        backupManager.dataChanged();
    }

super.onStop();
}
```

## Building
### Gradle

Add maven central to your `build.gradle`:

```groovy
buildscript {
  repositories {
    jcenter()
  }
}

repositories {
  jcenter()

```

#### From maven central

Add maven central to your `build.gradle`:

```groovy

```

Then declare android-device-identification within your dependencies:

```groovy
dependencies {
  ...
  compile('com.thomashaertel:android-device-identification :0.0.2@aar') {
  }
  ...
}
```

### Maven
