Schedule and Cancel methods are not publicly available

I don't see the public methods for scheduling and canceling the termination job.

JobScheduler Android 64bit support

Update the extension to include support for Android 64bit

Starting August 1, 2019, your apps published on Google Play will need to support 64-bit architectures. 64-bit CPUs deliver faster, richer experiences for your users. Adding a 64-bit version of your app provides performance improvements, makes way for future innovation, and sets you up for devices with 64-bit-only hardware.

AndroidX migration

Compatibility with Notifications

Hi, my app has been crashed after termination from JobScheduler and after receiving notification from Notifications. E.g. termination is set up for 5 minutes and notification is set up for 6 minutes after deactivate event and then after 6 minutes (app is in background) I get notification and after tap on it, app is starting and after few seconds it has been crashed.

Solved: No such service ComponentInfo

I'm not sure if I'm doing something incorrectly, I've wired in several of the distriqt extensions but I haven't seen this issue before. I tried this on 2 different Android 8.0 devices.

Error #2044: Unhandled error:. text=No such service ComponentInfo{air.com.spicerackmedia.bingoshowdown/com.distriqt.extension.jobscheduler.services.TerminateAppJobService}

private function SomeClass() {
	try {
		JobScheduler.init( "" );
		trace( "JobScheduler.init() success" );
		trace("isSupported: " + JobScheduler.isSupported);
		trace("version: " + JobScheduler.VERSION);
	} catch (e:Error) {
		trace( "ERROR::"+e.message );
	}
}
private function onApplicationActivated(e:SpicerackEvent):void {
	var jobCanceled:Boolean = JobScheduler.instance.cancelTermination();
	trace("jobCanceled: " + jobCanceled);
}

private function onApplicationBackgrounded(e:SpicerackEvent):void {
	var jobScheduled:Boolean = JobScheduler.instance.scheduleTermination( 1000 * 7 );
	trace("jobScheduled: " + jobScheduled);
}

console output:
JobScheduler.init() success
isSupported: true
version: 0.0.011

JobScheduler restarts the binded service

I've been testing the ANE file and reproduced what's causing Wakelocks with jobscheduler.

On the device, I've set sleepmode to 15seconds.
On the app, I've set : NativeApplication.nativeApplication.addEventListener(Event.DEACTIVATE, onDeactivate);

onDeactivate method scheduleTermintation after 20 seconds .

Just launch the app, wait for the device to go to sleep mode. After 20 seconds adb logs show:

Expected behaviour

The app should be killed and not restarted after.

Actual behaviour

App is active, device goes in sleep mode after 15 seconds, jobscheduler is set to terminate the app in 20 seconds, after 20 seconds job scheduler will restart the associated app.
