Enhancement: Option to use an alternative module repository or completely disable online repository access #532

Description

Is your feature request related to a problem?/你的请求是否与某个问题相关?

As I know, the LSPosed manager UI seems to be tethered with the modules.lsposed.org module repository, providing no option to fully disable or replace it. I personally do not want to use it since it is not strict about closed-source modules and antifeatures, which I particularly want to avoid. Having a useless modules repository and update checking feature in the manager UI is disturbing.

Describe the solution you'd like/描述你想要的解决方案

Offer an option to fully replace the modules.lsposed.org repository with a user-changeable alternative, and an option to fully disable online repository access (including the module download page and the update checking feature).

Additional context/其他信息

Recently the LSPosed modules repo has become increasingly confusing regarding open-source. Some projects have a source code link pointing to a non-source placeholder repository, and some projects that have stopped being open source still have a wrongly-labeled license and a deceptive link pointing to the outdated repository. I consider these misleading stuff hazardous, and want to stop using the repo in favor of more reliable sources like F-Droid.

Just to remind, it can be completely fine for users to disable update checking, since LSPosed modules are regular apps and can be obtained and updated directly from F-Droid or GitHub releases.
