Today we're seeing a crash that's likely caused by a change in the order in which
system services start.
The crash we're seeing happens in response to user interaction which happens after the
boot process completes, so we should re-fetch the DevicePolicyManager if we weren't
able to get it when LockPatternUtils was constructed.
Includes several potentially controversial major changes:
- Remove the amount of repeated boilerplate explanations of common
idioms. I find them much more distracting than useful. The same
things are explained, but in fewer places.
- Add more narrative/directive information instead of merely descriptive
commentary; I included a lot of "color" about who particular methods are
intended for and why you might use them.
- Add explicit guidance (in the class javadoc) about the common usage pattern.
Explicitly document the auth token invalidation dance, which is highly
nonobvious, had never been written down before, and which GMM got wrong,
creating a Latitude conops nightmare they're still digging out of.
- Explain and justify, as best I can, the overall model of account management:
saved credentials, pluggable authenticators, auth tokens, and so on. Clarify
some things, like that setPassword() changes the locally cached credential
but does not set the user's password on the server.
- Clarify what the passed-in Activity parameter is used for. (It seems silly,
but I was confused by this: is it supposed to be the Activity that actually
performs the password prompt or whatever? No, it's just a Context for the
startActivity() to be launched from.)
This removes the '*' value for android.app.searchable and
android.app.default_searchable that was previously used by apps to say
that they want global search as their search. I think the only
activity that this will affect is the wallpaper chooser in the
launcher, which doesn't seem like it matters. It could mean that some
third party code will stop invoking global search, but all they would
need to do is call startSearch() with globalSearch=true instead.

2185256: After open &close of device keyboard shortcut does not added to Home desktop.
ActivityThread was losing the last saved state when restarting or launching into
a paused state.
2366174: defaults not cleared when they should be
PackageManagerService now removes any preferred activity records for a package
when it is uninstalled.
2154556: Battery stats can have an unbounded number of wake locks
We now start combining wake locks into one shared record when we hit a
maximum limit (currently 20).
2442519: Foreground services can have no notification by providing a bogus one.
If the notification manager rejects our notification, the service is forced to
no longer be in the foreground.
2442383: Finalization issues in com.android.server.am.PendingIntentRecord.java
Cleaned up finalization to call super class and avoid the big activity manager
lock (we still need to use the locks inside of the message system, but these
are much less likely to be a problem).
2284190: Cannot call a phone number using adb
We weren't getting the calling uid/pid in startActivity() if the caller did not
supply an application record.
And ability to exclude tests with given annotation.
Also fix class cast compile warning in emma output method.

SD card mount point has changed from /sdcard to /mnt/sdcard. layout test was calling getCanonicalPath to determine the path to the test case, which causes problem because /sdcard is now a symlink, and canonical path is actually the "real" path. Using quick dirty fix for now, will properly migrate any hard-coded reference to "/sdcard" to system function calls.
