AnkiDroid no longer requires non-free network services

Since AnkiDroid 2.6.0 there is an option in the settings to switch to a different sync server and doing so is officially endorsed by the AnkiDroid team.

Some Background: There is little overlap between the developers of Desktop/iOS Anki and AnkiDroid. So while neither of these "official" clients support using custom sync servers (even though there is a workaround for Anki Desktop) because "there is AnkiWeb", the AnkiDroid apparently doesn't share this opinion.
