Store: add repositories in a background job and show the TOFU fingerprint

Adding a repository downloads and verifies its whole index, so it now runs as a
job (runJob in the UI) and reports 'Trusted on first use: <fingerprint>' when
no pin was given. fdroidrepos:// links pass the server check, as documented.
Jobs report SourceError messages without a 'SourceError:' prefix.
