A2DP Connect going away as separate app

A2DP Connect (a.k.a. A2DP Connect2) is being replaced with widget integration into A2DP Volume.  In order to make the widget icon change based on connection state I needed to track the connection state of Bluetooth devices.  A2DP Volume already does this.  Rather than have another background service, and now the required notification icons, I instead integrated the A2DP Connect widget into A2DP Volume.  Now A2DP Volume has 2 widgets.

The one on the left (showing a car) is the old location widget and that works as it always has.  The widget on the right is the connect widget.  It works just like it did in A2DP Connect.  This change happened in A2DP Volume 2.12.12.5.
