"signatureOrSystem" permissions are no longer available to all apps
residing en the /system partition. Instead, there is a new /system/priv-app
directory, and only apps whose APKs are in that directory are allowed
to use signatureOrSystem permissions without sharing the platform cert.
This will reduce the surface area for possible exploits of system-
bundled applications to try to gain access to permission-guarded
operations.
The ApplicationInfo.FLAG_SYSTEM flag continues to mean what it is
says in the documentation: it indicates that the application apk was
bundled on the /system partition. A new hidden flag FLAG_PRIVILEGED
has been introduced that reflects the actual right to access these
permissions.
At some point the "system" permission category will be
renamed to "privileged".

Many media files and source code files were marked as executable in Git.
Remove those.
Also a shell script and python script were not marked as executable.

Change from LOCAL_JNI_SHARED_LIBRARIES to LOCAL_REQUIRED_MODULES to make
sure the JNI library is built and included when DefaultContainerService
is built.

System applications that don't have "media_rw" access need some way to
measure the size of directories on the SD card and other internal media.
Add this API to DefaultContainerService so they can simply bind to the
service and make an RPC.

Add new remote interface to do temporary copies. The new
remote stub handling is done on mHandler thread and doesn't need locking
for now.
Add new InstallArgs class and subclasses to isolate cases for installation.
Move resource deletion for failed installs/upgrades to later on in installation
cycle.
Fix code path for forward locked apps when using scanPackageLI
TODO's
Fix installation paths to completely use InstallArgs based design later on.
Get rid of using flags in various install/uninstall code paths.
Ideally InstallArgs should be created using these flags and used in the
rest of the code.
Function renames.
Revisit mount api's.
