Unable to use LOST API in conjunction with Mapbox Android SDK

[dmeignan]

Platform: Android
Mapbox SDK version: 4.1.1

The Android Mapbox SDK use the LOST API version 1.1.0 (see compile 'com.mapzen.android:lost:1.1.0' in Gradle dependencies of MapboxGLAndroidSDK). I also use in my app the LOST API. However, the version 1.1.0 of the LOST API does not manage correctly multiple location listeners. In particular, when the LocationServices of Mapbox requests the locationClient to disconnect (in LocationServices.java), then it shuts down the LOST location engine for all location listeners. This problem has been solved in version 1.1.1 of the LOST API.

The Mapbox Android SDK should use the version 2.0.0 or at least 1.1.1 of the LOST API for a better integration in apps that also use LOST API.

I did a gradle sync to see how big the semver change of 2.0.0 is:

Since we are close to release I'm going to assign it to android-future. We are currently thinking of rewriting the way we are handling these location udpdates. For now I'm going to update the dependency to 1.1.1 as requested. This should introduce any changes in code. Thank you for reaching out!

Update to 1.1.1 got merged in #6476. We will upgrade other dependencies with next release cycle.
