We're mostly using our own network stack, so I'm not sure to what extent that even matters, although on the other hand some parts (most notably maybe favicon handling) do go through Android's network stack and given that we are a browser and users want to access arbitrary pages it's clear that we need to do this.
This should be as easy as adding
android:usesCleartextTraffic="true"
to our app manifest.

Needs to be explicitly declared in case we start targeting Android P.
It's unclear to what extent this is really required when *not* using Android's
network stack directly, but at least with Firefox, some things definitively use
it, e.g. favicons. As we're a browser, we need to allow access to arbitrary
pages, so just generally white-list it.
