1. Updated the empty state of the all printers activity to show no printers message
if the user is searching and there are no matches and a searching for printers
message if the user is not filtering the printers list.
2. Adding the fake PDF printer after the historical printers are loaded to avoid the case
where we select the PDF printer and immediately after that the most used printer is
selected resulting in an undesirable UI flicker.
3. Fixed a bug where if the most used printer which is initially considered unavailable
is reported by the print service as available but the UI is not properly updated
leaving the user in no way to click on the print button.

1. Initially we have a single printer, the fake PDF printer, and
wait for printers to be discovered. This printer was handling
only a couple of media sizes. Hence, if the app provides a
media size hint and the PDF printer does not support it, we
were essentially ignoring the suggested media size since it
was not supported by the selected printer and we fell back to
the default paper size for that printer. The fake PDF printer
should support all predefined media sizes.
2. The list of available paper sizes was shown in the order they
are added ignoring the current locale. It is much better user
experience if the media sizes used in the current locale are
shown at the top and all others after that. Also the media
sizes for the current locale should be alphabetically ordered
so the user can quickly find the desired one.
3. The orientation was reset on media size or printer change.

1. Sometimes selecting a printer from the full printer list does not
work if the selected printer was not in the initial drop down list
of the print dialog.
The reason was that there is a race. We use loaders in the print
dialog activity and the all printers one. When these loaders are
stopped we stop printer discovery since we do not want to keep this
potentially expensive process on going if the activity is paused
because say the user decide to press home and start playing his
favorite game while the printers dialog is up. As a result the
loader does not get printer updates until it is started.
The loader of the print dialog activity is stopped while the user is
selecting a printer from the all printers activity whose loader is
getting discovered recent printers. Now when the user selects a printer
the loader of the print dialog activity is started but may not get
the latest printers by the time onActivityResult is called with the
selected printer. Now we cache the selected printer id and if the
loader reports it we select that printer.
2. In the print dialog we show only a few of the discovered printers.
If the user selects a printer from the all printers activity that
is not in the initial list we shuffle the adapter data to make sure
the selected printer is in the shown subset. Now if the printers
change, i.e. the printers loader reports new result we were not
respecting the reshuffling made before so the short list of
printers changes yet again.

The user can select all printers from the print dropdown to get to

1. We want the files for a print job to be removed as early as possible
typically because the print job was cancelled, completed, the app
or the spooler crashed during print job construction. We were keeping
around in the spooler and hence to disc infos for jobs that are in
final state since the app that created them may hold a reference to
a local print job objec whose info it can access to get the latest
print job state potentially after the job reached final state. The
issue was that we were persisting to disc created print jobs which
were during construction which requires careful handling for the
various cases above. This is tricky and error prone.
We used to tell the spooler to forget the print jobs infos when the
app that created them died. The implementation to forget a print
job was not careful and was nuking currently running print jobs in
addition to the ones in a terminal state. Further, if the app dies
before a print job is completed we were left with a stale print
job in the spooler since we missed the signal to forget it (assuming
we forget only inactive jobs). These issues suggest that the approach
is problematic.
Now we have a cache of print job infos for the jobs an app created.
This cache is updated when the state of a print jobs changes using
the new print job state observation code. When the app dies we
remove the cached jobs for that app. Now if the app calls to get
the print jobs it gets the cached ones, i.e. the print jobs it
created during its lifetime, plus the print jobs that are still
active fetched from the spooler. Note that transient state cannot
be kept in the spooler since we unbind from it if there is no
work and it may get killed.
2. Improved the print sub-system logging code to show the cached
print job infos for apps and also dump the print job PDF file
names.

A print service may choose to provide only the printer info and then when
it is requested to start tracking the state of the printer, the service
should provide the printer capabilities. If the capabilities are not
received within ten seconds we mark the printer as unavailable and stop
tracking it.

1. The printers in the printers list of settings change position if
they are updated. The settings app is using hidden platform APIs
the this change fixes.
2. Enable ProGuard for the PrintSpooler.
3. Added icons on the list of printers so the user knows which
print service used the printer. Now the user can know when
he is using cloud print and maybe incurring data costs vs
local printer discovered by a vendor plug in.

1. In the FusedPrintersLoader we start observing the printers on
the device and if they change we send the result. If however,
the printers are already loaded in our session (because it
joined an ongoing printer discovery) and the pritners do not
change, the loader never sends its result. Now we are registring
the callback only after historical printers are loaded. We
also immediately check after starting discovery whether the
there are printers in the discovery session and if so deliver
them.
2. Improved logging in the FusedPrintersLoader.

1. The fused printers provider was dropping on the floor received printers
if it was not active. It is in fact a loaded and if not active it should compute
the printers and not deliver them until activated. This fixes an issue where
opening the print dialog, then enabling a print service results in the printers
reported by the service not showing up in the print dialog.
2. Printer discovery session was created twice which leads to incorrect behavior
as the pint system is designed around the contract that there is a single
printer discovery session per service at a time. This was possible due to an
incorrect initialization of a member variable resulting in double session creation
when the print service is connected.
3. When a print service is enabled during discovery we did not use the correct
condition to start printer discovery resulting in starting it all the time even if
not needed. Also if some of the printers that had to be tracked are reported
by the service just enabled (typically historical printers) we did not ask the
service to start tracking them.
4. Removed some logging.

Every time a printer is selected we have to refresh it by telling
the print service to stop tracking the previously selected printer
if such and start tracking the current one. As a result of start
tracking the print service has to give us the capabilities too. A
previous patch caused a regression and we do not refresh printers
when needed.

1. The algorithm that determines whether a page range contains
another one had a bug and in some cases misbehaved.
2. When print is pressed we do a final layout and if nothing
changes and we have the requeted pages we skip the final
write. However, in this case we did not update the print
job with the pages to be printed but we have to since in
the previous write we did not ask for all selected pages,
rather for the first one to be shown as a preview. Now if
we have all pages and nothing changed we update the print
job pages.

The user has to explicitly enable a print service from the settings UI
before using it. Usually, users very rarely if at all interact with print
services, therefore all print service management task are performed from
the print settings. We also have to get user consent warning that the
user's data is about to be given to a third-party app. We now post a
notification allowing the user to go directly to the settings screen to
turn the service on.

1. Layout was not called after pressing the print button if the
print attributes did not change. This is not correct since the
previous layout calls were for preview purposes and the one
after pressing print is not for preview. Hence, we always have
to do this layout.
2. After layout we decide whether to ask the app to write some
pages. We ask for a write if we do not have the pages selected
by the user or the document changed (if the page count changed,
the document type changed, or the app told us that the content
changed). We were not computing correctly whether the document
changed since we compared the size but the document info the
app passes in after a layout does not have the size yet. We set
the size after a write. So for layout purposes we should ignore
the size. We only care if the page count, document type, or
content changed where the latter is reported by the app in
the layout callback.
3. We were not updating the PrintJob after setting the data
size of the printed document.
4. Disabled debugging.
