Location in background does not work

[heinrichmartin]

Version 1.1.1.

Location updates work fine if the app is not in the foreground.
Location updates do not work when the app is closed.

Bug:
WHEN I close the app
THEN the GPS indicator icon on the mobile blinks (disappears and re-appears)
AND no location updates are available on the server

Additional requests were split to #31 and #32

In Android versions <8 closing the app results in killing the process. Afterwards the service is spawned again:

02-24 11:53:01.218 16568 16568 I mono-stdout: Got 0 location listener instances to inform about updated location.

Cause:
RestService singleton is registered as location listener in the startup of the App.cs. This needs to be changed to static initialization, which is also called on service-only startup.
