The Binary Clock is neat, but it would really benefit from customization features like the following

The trick is the main interface, the clock, should remain the first thing people see after launching the app, and it should remain clean and uncluttered. That means I don't want a settings button or side panel.

Rather, I recommend adding an event listener for a long press on the clock to open the settings page.

It would also be acceptable to display a toast after launching the app telling the user how to access these settings (though the user might want a setting to disable the toast).

Add a brightness configuration setting for the Binary Clock
6e7cd92 
Someone using the Binary Clock by their bedside will likely prefer a
dimmer screen than a person using it at their office desk.

To accomodate both preferences, this commit adds a Settings screen with
a slider to adjust the clock's brightness. The settings are accessible
only via long pressing on the clock face in order to preserve the
minimalist feel of the Binary Clock (a Toast is shown on app launch to
inform the user of how to access the settings.)

Add a hints setting for the Binary Clock
74f1c31 
People new to the Binary Clock might appreciate numeric hints that help
them learn how to read the clock.

This commit adds a setting, disabled by default, that will show those
numeric hints if enabled.

Polish off Settings screen

Binary Clock now has what I consider the minimum viable set of features required
for a successful release on the app store!
