You can now specify resource configuration variants "wNNNdp"
and "hNNNdp". These are the minimum screen width/height in "dp"
units. This allows you to do things like have your app adjust
its layout based only on the about of horizontal space available.
This introduces a new configuration change flag for screen size.
Note that this configuration change happens each time the orientation
changes. Applications often say they handle the orientation change
to avoid being restarted at a screen rotation, and this will now
cause them to be restarted. To address this, we assume the app can
handle this new config change if its target SDK version is < ICS.

This updates the various documentation on screen sizes to discuss
the exact screen dimensions that are now associated with each size.
In addition, the screen sizes vs. densities table is updated to
include a number of additional representative screens.

The ratio between densities is not constant.
The Exception for dpi qualifier in point 4 of the algorithm should be detailed.
I understand that if my config is ldpi-trackball-v5
and I have the choice between mdpi and hdpi-trackball-v5, mdpi will be chosen.
Cherry-picked from master CL 59188.

docs: rewrite resources documentation
Huge overhaul. Includes all new dev guides about how resources are used
on Android and how to provide alternatives, including how to handle
runtime configuration changes (restarts). Plus all new reference
docs for all the resource types (drawables, strings, menus, etc.).
