415d8c3819 Switch Looper back to using poll() instead of epoll().
Added a couple of micro-optimizations to avoid calling wake() unnecessarily
and reduce JNI overhead slightly.

Fixed a minor issue where we were not clearing the "next" field of Messages
returned by the MessageQueue so the Message would hold on to its successor
and potentially prevent the GC from collecting it if the message were leaked
somehow.

4fe6c3e51b Replace epoll() with poll() and rename PollLoop to Looper.
As part of this change, consolidated and cleaned up the Looper API so
that there are fewer distinctions between the NDK and non-NDK declarations
(no need for two callback types, etc.).

Removed the dependence on specific constants from sys/poll.h such as
POLLIN.  Instead looper.h defines events like LOOPER_EVENT_INPUT for
the events that it supports.  That should help make any future
under-the-hood implementation changes easier.

Fixed a couple of compiler warnings along the way.

42c03e579a Modify native ALooper to take an explicit ident.
The ALooper API now uses an explicit "identifier" for the integer
that is returned rather than implicitly using the fd.  This allows
the APIs that had the fd to be a little more sane.

85448bbecd Add new glue code for writing native apps.
This factors out the boiler-plate code from the sample
app to a common glue code that can be used for everyone
writing this style of app: a dedicated app thread that
takes care of waiting for events and processing them.

As part of doing this, ALooper has a new facility to allow
registration of fds that cause ALooper_pollOnce() to return
the fd that has data, allowing the app to drive the loop
without callbacks.  Hopefully this makes some people feel better. :)

Also do some other cleanup of the ALooper API, plus some
actual documentation.

682674154e Add new native Looper API.
This allows us to avoid exposing the file descriptor of
the event queue; instead, you attach an event queue to
a looper.  This will also should allow native apps to be
written without the need for a separate thread, by attaching
the event queue to the main thread's looper and scheduling
their own messages there.
