The command generates an Android library (`aar`) that can be imported
into an Android application project. Librclone will be contained
within `libgojni.so` and loaded automatically.
```java
// imports
import org.rclone.gomobile.Gomobile;
import org.rclone.gomobile.RcloneRPCResult;
// initialize rclone
Gomobile.rcloneInitialize();
// call RC method and log response.
RcloneRPCResult response = Gomobile.rcloneRPC("core/version", "{}");
Log.i("rclone", "response status: " + response.getStatus());
Log.i("rclone", "output: " + response.getOutput());
// Clean up when finished.
Gomobile.rcloneFinalize();
```
This is a low level interface - serialization, job management etc must
be built on top of it.
iOS has not been tested (but should probably work).

## TODO
- Async jobs must currently be cancelled manually at the moment - RcloneFinalize doesn't do it.
- This will use the rclone config system and rclone logging system.
- Need examples showing how to configure things,
