Collect: Check whether Google play services are installed or not

[shobhitagarwal1612]

Problem description

Currently the app doesn't check whether the play services of the required version are installed or not before trying to access any concerned google API like Google Maps, Google Sheets or Google Drive API. Right now the app doesn't give any hint to the user as to what is happening when services are not found

Expected behavior

To show a dialog box that the required services are not found and a option to update to the latest version

@lognaturel @yanokwa @Dvik Any thoughts?

i'm working on #132 which would fix the play services issue whenever location is accessed.
i'm also testing #488 on an API 16 emulator with no Google Play Service.

[lognaturel]

Great! So maybe we can wait for @Dvik's fix for #132 and then see how it can be generalized.

[lognaturel]

@shobhitagarwal1612 @Dvik There's a nice fix for #132 in #491 that's ready to merge after a small style change. Let's leave this one to @Dvik since he's in that code already!

[lognaturel]

@Dvik I know you mentioned on another issue being busy. Would you like to also let someone else take this one on? We would really like to have it in the next release (complete by March 22nd)! 😊

[shobhitagarwal1612]

@lognaturel I had to check if play services are installed or not while updating the sheets library. If @Dvik allows, I can quickly add the same code to the other classes as well

[Dvik]

Yeah, sure.
I would be more than happy to let someone take it up.

[lognaturel]

@shobhitagarwal1612 I think you have most of the code needed in #607. Would you like to take this one on when you're done there?

[shobhitagarwal1612]

Yeah, I would love to

[grzesiek2010]

I am working on this as @shobhitagarwal1612 is busy and we need that for Wednesday's code freeze.

[shobhitagarwal1612]

@grzesiek2010 Thanks for taking it up.
