These permissions are definded by the platform to protect the
subscribed feeds provider which is not in the system, neither
is its contract specified in the system. Both the contract and
the implementation of the provider are in GmsCore. Hence, this
permissions shuld be declared by GmsCore, not the system. Until
GmsCore adds the permissions we have to keep this as removed
but present in the implementation to keep apps that use the
provider working.

Before all permissions were granted at install time at once, so the user
was persented with an all or nothing choice. In the new runtime permissions
model all dangarous permissions (nomal are always granted and signature
one are granted if signatures match) are not granted at install time and
the app can request them as necessary at runtime.
Before, all granted permission to an app were identical for all users as
granting is performed at install time. However, the new runtime model
allows the same app running under two different users to have different
runtime permission grants. This change refactors the permissions book
keeping in the package manager to enable per user permission tracking.
The change also adds the app facing APIs for requesting runtime permissions.

The settings constants for various volumes do nothing and are
used by nothing since API version 2. These are however backed
up in the cloud which is a waste of resource. This change
removes these constants from the SDK while keeping them hidden
to avoid breaking released apps and also prevents unnecessary
backup.

Added an overload of getSystemService() that takes a class instead of a
service name to eliminate the extra cast and provide more type safety.
Cleaned up docs.
Removed the default constructor of BatteryManager which should not have
existed.

Note that this change also includes another (non-breaking) update from
another of my changes from a month ago. I guess nobody has updated API on
master in a very long time..
