B4A Library OkHttpUtils2 v3.02

All previous versions of OkHttpUtils2 relied on a service. As it is no longer possible to start services when the app starts in the background, this configuration is problematic and it will fail in such cases (https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/receivers-and-httpjob.146181).
In the new version HttpUtils2Service is actually a receiver. It should be transparent for developers.

Note that this is an internal library.
