InfiniTime 1.5 "Huckleberry" comes with a new features many users have been asking for for a long time : an Alarm app!

Thanks to mruss77, InfiniTime now comes with a shiny new alarm app. This new app allows you to specify the time you want the alarm to be triggered, and also to specify which days it should be triggered (only once, every days, week days). It also displays when the next alarm will be triggered. This is the first version of this app, and we've already identified many functionalities that could be added in the future like the support for multiple alarm, and persisting the settings after a reset.

The handling of vibrations for notifications has also been improved by Riksu9000 : the button in the quick actions menu now only toggles vibrations on notifications, while still allowing other apps (Metronome, Timer and the new Alarm app) to enable the vibrations.

InfiniTime is now able to recover the time after a reset! This quality of life improvement, added by geekbozu, stores the date and time in a spefific area in memory that can be recovered after the reset. This way, you won't have to re-sync the time with your phone each time your reset your watch (to workaround those annoying BLE issues, for example).

Talking of BLE, evergreen22 improved the adertising strategy, which should improve the connection and reconnection reliability between your watch and your phone. In Bluetooth Low Energy, a BLE device advertises (announces) itself by broadcasting a small message with various info about itself. The other devices are then able to detect your watch by listenning (scan) for those messages. These changes improved the advertising strategy by following state of the art recommandations.

The battery level monitoring have also been improved by Riksu9000. The measurements should now bit more consistent and reliable.

This release also brings a few documentation update and code cleanings.
