Improve LiveActivities

[BPerlakiH]

• Change background fill for live activities to mach other widgets
• Make sure long running download processes still updates the progress of the live activity
• Use "guess-timated" values for progress if needed, to make the updates more smooth

Still not fully fixed

@BPerlakiH I'm still missing a new approach to speed up liveactivities refresh rate

[kelson42]

We still have massive problems.

First one is that the progressbar are not in sync at-all, even after waiting 10s. See

The second one is that when I clicked on the live activity, it opens Kiwix, but not the book which is currently downloading.

Well, the progress bar is either going to be in sync with the amount, but won't move for 10sec, or moving constantly but not in sync with the amount...

I was thinking about it, and maybe it would be better to just replace it with a spinning progress indicator, so that it's visible that something is happening, that way we do not need to be precise exactly where it is, and could leave the amount (MB / GB) text updated every 10 sec, and leave the count down in as well.

It is not in sync even after 10s waiting. It's not a sync problem, it is a computation problem.

Honestly I really don't care much how this is done, but it shoukd be obvious that such a screenshot is not acceptable. Any download I do showes basically "random" values.

Please comment-out this feature, update the changelog and proceed with the release.
