big change: move the json loading and random server selection to main PieCannon class (so that it has a reason to live :)) and implement loading the json file in the android app.

Browse Source 
I deliberated between re-using the json file in the android app and using a sqlite database or some such thing, given that a UI for editing these will have to be implemented at some point. I figure the json file is more config than data, and probably should be as consistent as possible between platforms.

For now at least this makes the app usable for me, without having to hard-code my server credentials.

## How to use
Place a `servers.json` in your `XDG_DATA_HOME`, by default this would be `~/.local/share/piecannon` (create this directory if it does not exist. See `servers.example.json` for an example of such a file. Whenever you initiate a file upload, Pie Cannon will select one of your defined servers at random and upload the file.
Place a `servers.json` in the Pie Cannon data directory. For GNU/Linux this is `XDG_DATA_HOME` (by default this would be `~/.local/share/piecannon`) (create this directory if it does not exist. For Android this would be the app's "externalFilesDir" (probably something like `Android/data/net.monarchpass.piecannon/files` - the app will tell you when you launch it). See `servers.example.json` for an example of such a file. Whenever you initiate a file upload, Pie Cannon will select one of your defined servers at random and upload the file.
For SFTP servers (the only supported type as of now), the `path` is relative to your home directory and should be where `url` points to. i.e. a file uploaded to `path` should be downloadable at `url`. In the future Pie Cannon should be able to get SSH credentials from your agent so you won't need to put a password in this file.
