Description

Original: By defaulting to use the headless emulator binary in `<Android SDK Root>/emulator/emulator-headless`. This eliminates the need for Qt and other UI libraries as the Android emulator team have worked on this. See [https://androidstudio.googleblog.com/2019/02/emulator-2818-canary.html] and https://youtu.be/Up3hyBSDAMA?t=1687

New: By defaulting to use the headless emulator binary in <Android SDK Root>/emulator/emulator-headless. This eliminates the need for Qt and other UI libraries as well as memory improvements. The Android emulator team have worked on this. This is now a feature in emulator starting from 29.0.6 stable. Could also be an option in the plugin.

It doesn't allow me to run the headless emulator when just pointing the executable to emulator-headless binary.
