Back to the standard "app" module.
This return to "app" instead of "bitmask_android" is due to this reading: https://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/studio-build.html#projectStructure
I'll have to tweak the final apk name in build.gradle.

The module will then remain +in a wait state until it receives a message from OpenVPN via +pipe to execute the down script.
