Several new features in Android 11 made it nigh impossible to access and use the AAPS logfiles.
The changes were introduced with Android 11 but so far seem to (only) affect devices running Android 14 since the end of August 2024.
This fix works on my Pixel 8 and 5 (both running Android 14) and I tested it with success on an emulated Pixel 3 running Android 9.
I regained access by moving the AAPS user files in the Documents folder.
Further I renamed the logs folder in aapsLogs - a bit redundant but searching for "logs" kept spamming me with "dialogs".
Changing this is counterproductive. It would mean update wiki, explain to users etc. and it would be for maybe only year only
What we need is solution for Android 14
Users can get access to recent logfiles using "SEND-LOGS BY EMAIL" (or by connecting an USB cable and go to \Internal storage\Android\data\info.nightscout.androidaps\files). In general, only recent logfiles are useful and dev's will have access this way anyway)
Imho logfiles (=application system files) should not be in the phones "Documents" folder.
This PR only adds unnecessary code complexity.
