[Opensource/Testing] QuickShortcuts - Make dynamic and pinned shortcuts

Extensions
1

QuickShortcuts

Backwards compatible with versions < Android 8 (SDK 26). Features will only work when the user's device is Android => 8 (SDK 26)

This is a extension that lets you add dynamic shortcuts as well as request user to pin shortcuts to the home screen.

Suggestions and bug reports are suggested as this is my second time dealing with Java and I might not be very experienced at it yet

This is a test release and the blocks included might change before release. If you plan to use it frequently, please think twice before using.
