Android playback stops if KOReader is backgrounded or the screen turns off #16

Description

@acutino

First, BIG thanks for making this! I've wanted this to exist for such a long time!

This could be a limitation of KOReader's architecture, but playback stops if I open any other app, which means I can't, for example, have a map app open on my phone while I'm driving and listen to my book in the background. It also stops playing if the screen is locked.

I'm on a Pixel 8a, so not like a Boox where the whole system sleeps when the screen is off (I have one of those too, but am using this on the Pixel).

The section of the readme about using Android's MediaPlayer suggested to me that it might be meant to work differently, but if not, please keep up the good work elsewhere and don't worry about it!
