Configurable ANR detection time

[kattemp]

Description

ANRs detection limit is currently 5 seconds. We'd like to be able to lower this limit so that we can surface ANRs and identify the root cause more quickly.

Describe the solution you'd like

Make ANR detection time a configurable value

Hi @kattemp

Thanks for the suggestion. Currently our ANR detection hooks into Android's concept of an ANR, so the ANR will be reported in Bugsnag if the ANR dialog is displayed, the conditions for which are described here:
https://developer.android.com/topic/performance/vitals/anr

I believe what you're suggesting is Bugsnag being able to detect and report an app hang of shorter duration, which doesn't trigger the Android ANR dialog but can still impact a user's experience of using the app.

That seems a reasonable feature request so we'll consider whether this is something we can add support for in the future.
