new version of Android Emulator (27.1.7)

[Todd_Kopriva]

We just released a new version of the Android Emulator (27.1.7).

Here are the most notable changes:

• faster Quick Boot
  
  
• ability to save custom AVD (Android virtual device) snapshots for Quick Boot
  
  
• new version of QEMU
  
  
• much nicer looking emulator UI without the extraneous window frame.

Details about these and other changes and fixes are here:

• https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/emulator.html
  
  
• https://developer.android.com/studio/run/emulator.html#quickboot

If anything is unclear in the documentation, let me know.
