Reader: debug 5-tap gesture to reset the Reader database#22807
Conversation
In debug builds, tapping the Reader tab 5 times within 2 seconds now shows a confirmation dialog. On confirm, the Reader database is reset and the Reader fragment is recreated so the current screen reloads with fresh data. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The if-else indentation looks pretty weird 😅

Description
While working on various reader PRs (such as #22808) I've often had to clear storage to reset the reader database, which means logging in again each time. So in this PR tapping the Reader tab 5 times within 2 seconds now shows a confirmation dialog to reset the Reader database.
This is a developer convenience to make it easy to exercise cold-start / fresh-DB paths without having to clear app data. Note that this is only enabled in debug builds.
Also includes a small crash fix in
ReaderTagsFeedFragment.removeCurrentPostListFragment()— guarding withisAddedso the method is safe when the fragment is no longer attached.Testing instructions
