This change fixes a problem where an unwanted tone is generated by audio policy manager when a MT call is answered.
This is because of a policy that replaces high visibility system sounds (ringtones, alarms...) by a beep when in call.
There is a transitory phase while the call is being answered where the phone state is changed to IN_CALL but the
ringtone is still playing. The audio policy manager then mutes the end of the ringtone and starts playing a beep
in replacement because the ringtone is categorized as high visibility.
The fix consists in changing the ringtone stream type from high visibility to low visibility. This is not a problem as
the only actual use case where a ringtone would be generated while in call is if another call is received.
But in this case, the phone system does not generate a ringtone but a call waiting tone instead.
It is therefore not required to handle a ringtone as a high visibiltiy tone that must be somehow signaled to the user
while in call.
Added getRenderPosition() API to IAudioFlinger to retreive number of audio frames
written by AudioFlinger to audio HAL and by DSP to DAC.
Added getRenderPosition() API to AudioHardwareInterface to retreive number of audio frames
written by DSP to DAC.
Exposed AudioTrack::getPosition() to AudioSink() to make it available to media player.
Removed excessive log in AudioHardwareGeneric.
Modified AudioService.getActiveStreamType() so that STREAM_VOICE_CALL is selected when a track using this stream
type is playing.
Chanded isMusicActive() for a more generic isStreamActive(stream) method in AudioSystem, IAudioFlinger and AudioFlinger.
The problem is that after a media_server crash, the value of the A2DP output handle can change.
As this value is cached in AudioSystem for all client processes there can be a mismatch between the cached
and actual value after a media_server restart.
The fix consists in clearing the cached output handles and output to stream map values cached
in AudioSystem in AudioFlingerClient::binderDied() which is called when the media_server crashes.
Added setVoiceVolume() method to AudioSystem, AudioFlinger, IAudioFlinger, AudioPolicyService.
Removed call to AudioHardwareInterface::setVoiceVolume() from AudioFlinger::setStreamVolume().
Use integers instead of void* as input/output handles at IAudioFlinger and IAudioPolicyService interfaces.
AudioFlinger maintains an always increasing count of opened inputs or outputs as unique ID.
Initial commit for review.

Fixed lockup in AudioFlinger::ThreadBase::exit()
Fixed lockup when playing tone with AudioPlocyService startTone()
The problem comes from the fact that AudioSystem::getOutputFrameCount() calls getOutput() to retrieve the active output (A2DP or Hardware) before calling get_audio_flinger(). If it is the first time AudioSystem::getOutputFrameCount() is called in a given process, getOutput() will return a wrong value because gA2dpEnabled has not yet been updated by get_audio_flinger().
The fix consists in calling get_audio_flinger() in getOutput() to be sure that gA2dpEnabled is valid when getOutput() reads it.
