1. Added a new event type for notifying client accessibilitiy
services for changes in the layout. The event is fired at
most once for a given time frame and is delivered to clients
only if it originates from the window that can be interrogated.
2. Exposed the findByText functionality in AccessibilityNodeInfo.
This is very useful for an accessibility service since it allows
searching for something the user knows is on the screen thus
avoiding touch exploring the content. Touch exploring is
excellent for learning the apps but knowing them search is
much faster.
3. Fixed a bug causing an accessibiliby service not to receive
the event source in case of more than one service is registered
and one of them does not have paermission to interrogate the window.
The same event was dispatched to multiple services but if one
of them does not have interrogation permission the event is
modified to remove the source causing subsequent serivices not
to get the later.
4. Moved the getSource setSource methods to AccessibilityRecord
instead in AccessibilityEvent.
5. Hiden some protected members in AccessibilityRecod which should
not be made public since getters exist.
6. Added the View absolute coordinates in the screen to AccessibilityNodeInfo.
This is needed for fast computation of relative positions of
views from accessibility - common use case for the later.
7. Fixed a couple of marshalling bugs.
8. Added a test for the object contract of AccessibilityNodeInfo.

1. No clearing the last touch explore event in all cases
when transitioning to another mode.
2. Incorrectly assuming the the action index of an up/down
events is 0.

1. Views are represented as AccessibilityNodeInfos to AccessibilityServices.
2. An accessibility service receives AccessibilityEvents and can ask
for its source and gets an AccessibilityNodeInfo which can be used
to get its parent and children infos and so on.
3. AccessibilityNodeInfo contains some attributes and actions that
can be performed on the source.
4. AccessibilityService can request the system to preform an action
on the source of an AccessibilityNodeInfo.
5. ViewAncestor provides an interaction connection to the
AccessibiltyManagerService and an accessibility service uses
its connection to the latter to interact with screen content.
6. AccessibilityService can interact ONLY with the focused window
and all calls are routed through the AccessibilityManagerService
which imposes security.
7. Hidden APIs on AccessibilityService can find AccessibilityNodeInfos
based on some criteria. These API go through the AccessibilityManagerServcie
for security check.
8. Some actions are hidden and are exposes only to eng builds for UI testing.

1. AccessibilityManagerService was keeping handles to dead
IAccessibilitymanagerClients - now doing so.
2. AccessibilityManagerService was lazily cleaning up dead
IAccessibilityServiceConnections - now using a callback.
3. Cleaned up the book keeping of enabled services.
4. Fixed a bug that the input filter is still enabled
when disabling accessibility.

Note: This is a part of two CL change and contains the
system changes without updates to the settings.
1. Added a mechanism for configuring an accessibility service via
XML file specified in a meta-data tag (similar to IMEs).
2. Added property for specifying a settings activity for an
accessibility service.
3. Refactored the APIs in AccessibilityManager to return
lists of AccessiblityServiceInfo instead ServiceInfo
since the former describes an AccessibilityService in
particular (similar to IMEs).

1. Refactored the code to avoid code duplication.
2. Fixed a bug in removing unused pointers from the event.
3. Fixed a bug that was crashing the explorer.
4. Sending hover exit immediately at the end of touch exploration
gesture rather with a delay.

Added the concept of pointer properties in a MotionEvent.
This is currently used to track the pointer tool type to enable
applications to distinguish finger touches from a stylus.
Button states are also reported to application as part of touch events.
There are no new actions for detecting changes in button states.
The application should instead query the button state from the
MotionEvent and take appropriate action as needed.
A good time to check the button state is on ACTION_DOWN.
As a side-effect, applications that do not support multiple buttons
will treat primary, secondary and tertiary buttons identically
for all touch events.
The back button on the mouse is mapped to KEYCODE_BACK
and the forward button is mapped to KEYCODE_FORWARD.
Added basic plumbing for the secondary mouse button to invoke
the context menu, particularly in lists.
Added clamp and split methods on MotionEvent to take care of
common filtering operations so we don't have them scattered
in multiple places across the framework.

1. Added an Input Filter that interprets the touch screen motion
events to perfrom accessibility exploration. One finger explores.
Tapping within a given time and distance slop on the last exlopred
location does click and long press, respectively. Two fingers close
and in the same diretion drag. Multiple finglers or two fingers in
different directions or two fingers too far away are delegated to
the view hierarchy. Non moving fingers "accidentally grabbed the
device for the scrren" are ignored.
2. Added accessibility events for hover enter, hover exit, touch
exoloration gesture start, and end. Accessibility hover events
are fired by the hover pipeline. An accessibility event is
dispatched up the view tree and the topmost view fires it.
Thus predecessors can augment the fired event. An accessibility
event has several records and a predecessor can optionally
modify, delete, and add such to the event.
3. Added onPopulateAccessibilityEvent and refactored the existing
accessibility code to use it.
4. Added API for querying the currently enabled accessibility services
by feedback type.

This reverts commit ac84d3ba81f08036308b17e1ab919e43987a3df5.
There seems to be a problem with this API change. Reverting for now to
fix the build.

This patch adds a mechanism for capturing, filtering, transforming
and injecting input events at a very low level before the input
dispatcher attempts to deliver them to applications. At this time,
the mechanism is only intended to be used by the accessibility
system to implement built-in system-level accessibility affordances.
The accessibility input filter is currently just a stub.
It logs the input events receives and reinjects them unchanged,
except that it transforms KEYCODE_Q into KEYCODE_Z.
Currently, the accessibility input filter is installed whenever
accessibility is enabled. We'll probably want to change that
so it only enables the input filter when a screen reader is
installed and we want touch exploration.
