The APIs for checking whether keys are held down now also look
at virtual keys.
However it turns out there is less than a second between the time we
start the input thread and check for safe mode, so there is not enough
time to actually open all of the devices and get the data from them
about the finger being down to determine if a virtual key is down.
So now you can also hold DPAD center, trackball center, or s to
enter safe mode. Also give some vibrator feedback.

Add changes to have the ability to turn on and off the
automatic light sensing for the device. This is fully configurable
and is by default not present. Vendors should override the ALS setting
to enable the automatic lighting controls.
These changes will add a check box to the Brightness settings menu to give control
to the user to allow the device's display lighting to be controlled via the slide bar
or the auto lighting system.
If the user selects auto then the slide bar will become invisible. Manual mode
will present the slide bar to the user.

This will be used to avoid unnecessarily listening to data from sensors
that function as event devices.

The kernel can now publish a property describing the layout of virtual
hardware buttons on the touchscreen. These outside of the display
area (outside of the absolute x and y controller range the driver
reports), and when the user presses on them a key event will be
generated rather than a touch event.
This also includes a number of tweaks to the absolute controller
processing to make things work better on the new screens. For
example, we now reject down events outside of the display area.
Still left to be done is the ability to cancel a key down event,
so the user can slide up from the virtual keys to the touch screen
without causing a virtual key to execute.

* commit '270e87f71abc2edf446dbec20c725c823e8c7f37':
Sensors: Use a native_handle for the data channel instead of a single file descriptor.
This eliminates the requirement that all sensors share a single file descriptor.
This, along with concurrent changes in other projects, fixes bugs b/1614524 and b/1614481

If the battery files can't be found return status_unkown instead of an
error. On systems where we haven't brought up battery stats yet they
assume the battery is dead and turn off as soon as the runtime starts
