464d5b3da2 Audio framework: support for audio pre processing
Audio effect framework is extended to suport effects on
output and input audio path.

AudioFlinger: Support for audio effects and effect chains is
moved from PlaybackThread class to ThreadBase class so that
RecordThread can manage effects.
Effects of type pre processing are allowed on record thread
only. When a pre processing is enabled, the effect interface handle is
passed down to the input stream so that the audio HAL can call the
process function. The record thread loop calls the effect chain process
function that will only manage the effect state and commands and skip the
process function.

AudioRecord: The audio session is allocated before calling getInput() into
audio policy serice so that the session is known before the input theead is
created and pre processings can be created on the correct session.

AudioPolicyService: default pre processing for a given input source are
loaded from audio_effects.conf file.
When an input is created, corresponding effects are created and enabled.

0fb66c2b83 New effect library API
Moved and renamed media/EffectApi.h to hardware/audio_effect.h
Modified the effect library API to expose a library info structure
containing an interface functions table.
Also removed enums for audio channels, audio format and devices
from effect API and use values from system/audio.h instead.

Modified effects factory to support new library interface format and
load libraries and efffects listed in audio_effects.conf file.
The file audio_effects.conf is first loaded from /vendor/etc and
then from /system/etc/audio_effects.conf if not found.

Modified existing effect libraries to implement the new library interface.
