On modern versions of Android running in AOT mode
FloatMath is slower than Math. Calls to Math.sqrt(),
etc. are replaced by intrinsics which can be as small
as a single CPU opcode.
When running in interpreted mode the new
implementation is unfortunately slower, but I'm
judging this acceptable and likely to be improved
over time. This change saves a small amount of native
code.
Example timings:
Mako AOSP AOT:
Method: Original / New / Direct call to Math
ceil: 596ns / 146.ns / 111ns
sqrt: 694ns / 56ns / 25ns
Mako AOSP interpreted:
Method: Original / New / Direct call to Math
ceil: 1900ns / 2307ns / 1485ns
sqrt: 1998ns / 2603ns / 1788ns
Other calls Mako AOT:
Method: Original / New
cos: 635ns / 270ns
exp: 566ns / 324ns
floor: 604ns / 150ns
hypot: 631ns / 232ns
pow: 936ns / 643ns
sin: 641ns / 299ns
The advice to use Math directly, in preference to
FloatMath, is still good. FloatMath will be deprecated
separately.

The HAVE_(BSD|GNU)_QSORT_R in AndroidConfig.h has never worked, and we
should just be using something standard anyway.

The motivation is an API change: FloatMath is going to be
deprecated and/or removed. Performance is not the goal of
this change.
That said...
Math is faster than FloatMath with AOT compilation.
While making the change, occurances of:
{Float}Math.sqrt(x * x + y * y) and
{Float}Math.sqrt({Float}Math.pow(x, 2) + {Float}Math.pow(y, 2))
have been replaced with:
{(float)} Math.hypot(x, y)
Right now there is no runtime intrinsic for hypot so is not faster
in all cases for AOT compilation:
Math.sqrt(x * x + y * y) is faster than Math.hypot(x, y) with
AOT, but all other combinations of FloatMath, use of pow() etc.
are slower than hypot().
hypot() has the advantage of being self documenting and
could be optimized in future. None of the behavior differences
around NaN and rounding appear to be important for the cases
looked at: they all assume results and arguments are in range
and usually the results are cast to float.

HAVE_OOM_ADJ is really __linux__, and this code should never be run on
another platform.

Current implmntation only sends rotation updates on orientation
changes, so does not handle direct 0<->180 or 90<->270 transitions.
Update rotation based on an OrientationEventListener instead of
Intent.ACTION_CONFIGURATION_CHANGED

Add the app directory to the arguments for starting a process.
Add a check for NeedsNativeBridge and a call to PreInitializeBridge
in the native fork code.
