MessageFiltersActivity: Enable edge-to-edge and remove editbox_background

[chenxiaolong]

• Fixes the status bar having light text on a light background when the OS is set to light mode.
• Fixes spinners having light text on a light background when the OS is set to dark mode. (@android:drawable/editbox_background is not day/night-aware.)
  • NOTE: This does change how the UI looks a little bit. If this is not desired, I can try to find a different approach.

Fixes: #304

Should this be "dark mode"?

This does change how the UI looks a little bit. If this is not desired, I can try to find a different approach.

It's almost certainly fine, but if it's not too much trouble, would you be able to post before and after screenshots?

Sure! Happy to post screenshots.

Should this be "dark mode"?

In this case, I did mean light mode. Without edge-to-edge enabled, Android was showing white text in the status bar on top of a white background.

Using the default styling does make the dialog box a bit cramped compared to before. Let me see if I can make a small change to improve it.

What do you think about this? Screenshot_20250925-205055 (commit fe52109)

This adds Android's default dialog padding, makes the fields fill the width, and makes each row have equal heights.

Thanks as always for doing all this!

What do you think about this?

It's pretty good. I think that I prefer the versions that show boxes / rectangles around the values in the dialog, but I don't have very strong feelings on the matter.

Sounds good. I'll play around with this more tomorrow and see if I can get that to work.

[chenxiaolong]

I've added commit cad32c5, which adds borders around the values and makes the style of the EditText match the Spinners, similar to how it was before. I have no idea if this is the right way to do things, but this is how it looks:

Light mode: Screenshot_20250926-170152

Dark mode: Screenshot_20250926-170143

Looks good - thanks!
