1. Added methods to the ActivityManagerService remote interface
that allow accessing content providers outside of an application.
These methods are guarded by an internal signature protected
permission which is given to the shell user. This enables a
shell program to access content providers.
2. Implemented a shell command that takes as input as standart
fagls with values and manipulates content via the content provider
mechanism.

Since CDMA doesn't use APN settings there was no place to say what a cdma
device's DUN connection would support, so by default normal device
originating traffic would be blocked on a tethering single-connection device.
With this change you can (via overlay) say that it supports everything
so mms and on-device browsing/email will still work even when on a dun connection.
The reason to allow both: some carriers will charge per byte for dun access
and so they don't want lots of non-tethering traffic used (costs the user alot)
but other carriers just use a dun connection to limit access to tethering, but
once there give unlimited data, so it makes sense to support everything there.

Improving load time by:
- using window animation for fade-in and not
waiting to create HW layer
- starting loading of thumbnails/icons earlier
- only initially creating views for the first
screenful of items
- recycling views

HDMI audio hotplug is treated as a "headset" in the audio services. When a headset is unplugged,
WiredAccessoryObserver sends an AUDIO_BECOMING_NOISY broadcast so that applications can take
appropriate action (e.g. pausing audio if headphones were unplugged).
However, on Tungsten, when you unplug HDMI audio, the Music2 service was getting the NOISY intent
and pausing the transmitter media player. We could add Tungsten-specific code to Music2 to
disable this behavior, but it's probably better to disable this broadcast entirely because
applications on Tungsten probably shouldn't treat HDMI hotplug in the same way they treat
headphone hotplug on phones.
* changes:
Make ActivityManagerService just kill apps when they crash on headless devices.
Add support for disabling wallpaper service
Fix merge problem
Add the ability to pass float extras to AM.
Adding a feature to indicate specific support for Bluetooth API.
SystemServer: Add support for disabling AudioService and MountService
This patch is adding a capability so that OEM can override USB mode
in case the device is boot up with OEM specific mode. (i.e. modem
debug, factory test etc.)

SerialManager: provides access to serial ports
SerialPort: for reading and writing data to and from serial ports
IO with both array based and direct ByteBuffers is supported.
Accessing serial ports requires android.permission.SERIAL_PORT permission
Each platform must configure list of supported serial ports in the
config_serialPorts resource overlay
(this is needed to prevent apps from accidentally accessing the bluetooth
or other system UARTs).
In addition, the platform uevent.rc file must set the owner to the
/dev/tty* files to "system" so the framework can access the port.

Still needs integration with Settings (for persistence) and VolumePanel UI.

Services now must explicitly opt in to being accessed by isolated
processes. Currently only the activity manager and surface flinger
allow this. Activity manager is needed so that we can actually
bring up the process; SurfaceFlinger is needed to be able to get the
display information for creating the Configuration. The SurfaceFlinger
should be safe because the app doesn't have access to the window
manager so can't actually get a surface to do anything with.
The activity manager now protects most of its entry points against
isolated processes.
