Question

updated:

Android pre-5.1 support including deprecated armeabi target (superseded by armeabi-v7a, seems to be not supported by Android 5.0) to be dropped as I had proposed in #771, for the following reasons:
- Apache Cordova is now getting ready to drop Android 4.x and 5.0 support as already agreed in this discussion on the mailing list and proposed in this PR: apache/cordova-android#915
- alleviate the burden of testing on extra-old armeabi target CPU
error code will always be 0 (#821; was part of #773)
extra-old location numeric values of 0, 1, and 2 will be rejected; must use location: 'default' or iosDatabaseLocation setting as documented (was part of #773)
throw an exception in case of androidDatabaseImplementation: 2 setting which is now superseded by androidDatabaseProvider: 'system' setting
throw an exception in case of any options not supported by this plugin version such as key or createFromLocation is used

under consideration:

#925 - discuss and consider removing androidLockWorkaround option if it is not needed by the user community any longer

other:

#926 - tracking loose ends from minor and major release items that had been planned back in 2017 and 2018
