Currently, sys.platform and os.name are equal to 'linux' on Android. While Android uses the Linux kernel, the operating system is not a regular Linux. The libc (bionic) is very different than the regular glibc, the filesystem is organized very differently, etc.

I propose to change sys.platform and os.name to 'android' when running on Android.
