Comment (by sisbell):

 Desktop TBB is not using TOPL.  I think its fine targeting Android for the
 JNI work, as that is the primary platform we are interested in. We can
 just stick with your implementation of the unix socket for the control
 port.

 As we break apart everything, we can pick and choose which components it
 makes sense to share between the projects. I'm still interested in
 creating pure Java components where we can, as this would be more useful
 to the general community.

 The Android specific pieces deal mostly around broadcasts and shared
 preferences so those can be abstracted out without complicating the code.
 Orbot already has abstractions for the data so its just a matter of
 standardizing all of that similar to what we are talking about with
 jtorctl.
