The default is now to serialize everything onto the thread pool. If you would
like to have finer grained control over how AsyncTasks are executed, you can
call the new executeOnExecutor method, which takes a custom Executor. The
pool used by the default is handily now accessible as THREAD_POOL_EXECUTOR.
This change is because it is too tempting to convert single threaded Janky™
code to use AsyncTask in a way that is unsafe and ends up calling the
AsyncTasks in parallel.
Also, this adds a static execute(Runnable) method to AsyncTask that posts
onto the serialized queue, so that if you don't have any parameters or
return values, you can just use Runnable instead of AsyncTask.

You can now do android:largeHeap="true" on an application.
Doesn't yet do anything, waiting for Dalvik API.
Also tweak package parsing so that the SDK API level is set in the
configuration, allowing manifest resource value selection based on
that.

Text color for the fast scroll panel is dependent on its background,
which is already configurable within the theme.

Also hide menu shortcuts everywhere until we can get around to
redesigning the menu UI to be more consistent.

Added check avoid a division by zero resulting in NaN which in turn
makes checkFullyTilted to ignore high tilt angles from then on.
If (x, y, z) == (0, 0, 0) then there is no tilt or rotation and
this vector must be ignored. This check is extended to ignore all
small acceleration values where noise can be of big influence.
Low or zero readings can happen when space travelling free falling,
but more commonly when shaking or getting bad readings from the sensor.
The accelerometer is turned off when not used and polling it too soon
after it is turned on may result in (0, 0, 0).

docs: Rewrite of App Fundamentals.. Part 2.
This introduces three new docs:
Services:
Provides an introduction to using services and describes the
service lifecycle (previously in the "Component Lifecycles" section
of the fundamentals.jd document)
Bound Services:
A guide for services that offer binding.
AIDL:
A doc about using AIDL (primarily for creating a service interface)
Also includes edits to IntentService javadocs to clarify
different behaviors for some callback methods
Includes a new version of the services lifecycle diagram
and an additional diagram for determining onRebind()
These files are orphaned for now---they're not linked in the sidenav,
until I get the last couple documents submitted for the app fundamentals.

Fix bug 3328810 - remove icons from action bar overflow menu. Popup
menus now will not show icons. Give popup menu items a minimum width.
Alter the sizing of popup menus.
Fix bug 3192635 - revise rules for action menu dividers. Dividers now
appear between the overflow button and any other items next to it, and
anywhere they disambiguate touch targets between text and other
content. Action views are on their own and should include their own
dividers if needed.
Remove dividers from around action bar spinners and tabs.
