- use GenerationCache for caching
- move GenerationCache.h from libs/hwui/utils to include/utils
- add #define for cache activation / deactivation

Bug #3409580
This bug affects anything that draws a 9patch inside a layer, this includes
launcher's workspace, all of the fade animations, etc.

A recent change to optimize path rendering didn't account for
the destruction of native objects by the VM finalizer. We may be
done with the Java level version before we're done with the native
structure that's used by the display list. For example, a drawing
method on a View that creates a temporary path to render into the
canvas will implicitly create a native structure that is put onto
the GL display list. That temporary path may go away, but the native
version should stick around as long as the display list does.
The fix is to refcount the original native version of the path
and only delete it when the refcoutn reaches zero (which means that
it is no longer needed by any display list). This is a similar mechanism
used for bitmaps and shaders.

Bug #3413433
This change will be beneficial to Launcher to avoid hiccups when
swiping pages of icons. When a layer is discarded, it is kept
in the layers pool instead of being destroyed right away. This
favors memory reuse over allocations.

Bug #3413433
This helps Launcher when a widget updates during a scroll, or when interacting
with widgets on the workspace if layers are still turned on.

Various property setters in View need to invalidate the parent's
cache to get redrawn properly when accelerated with display lists.
Also, fix logic around display lists and old-style Animations in
ViewGroup.

Bug #3385247
- The layer's alpha was interpreted in the wrong range 0..255 instead of 0..1
- 9-patches would not correctly dirty the layer region, the generated mesh
was incorrect

Previously, display lists were used only if hardware acceleration
was enabled for an application (hardwareAccelerated=true) *and* if
setDrawingCacheEnabled(true) was called. This change makes the framework
use display lists for all views in an application if hardware acceleration
is enabled.
In addition, display list renderering has been optimized so that
any view's recreation of its own display list (which is necessary whenever
the visuals of that view change) will not cause any other display list
in its parent hierarchy to change. Instead, when there are any visual
changes in the hierarchy, only those views which need to have new
display list content will recreate their display lists.
This optimization works by caching display list references in each
parent display list (so the container of some child will refer to its
child's display list by a reference to the child's display list). Then when
a view needs to recreate its display list, it will do so inside the same
display list object. This will cause the content to get refreshed, but not
the reference to that content. Then when the view hierarchy is redrawn,
it will automatically pick up the new content from the old reference.
This optimization will not necessarily improve performance when applications
need to update the entire view hierarchy or redraw the entire screen, but it does
show significant improvements when redrawing only a portion of the screen,
especially when the regions that are not refreshed are complex and time-
consuming to redraw.

The renderer was checking whether the layer's region is a rect to
draw it with a simple quad. This test was done against the layer's
region structure, which was cleared after generating the mesh.
Unfortunately Region::isRect() returns true when the region is
empty, which was causing the renderer to always use a quad to
draw a mesh on screen.
