First step of improving app screen size compatibility mode. When
running in compat mode, an application's windows are scaled up on
the screen rather than being small with 1:1 pixels.
Currently we scale the application to fill the entire screen, so
don't use an even pixel scaling. Though this may have some
negative impact on the appearance (it looks okay to me), it has a
big benefit of allowing us to now treat these apps as normal
full-screens apps and do the normal transition animations as you
move in and out and around in them.
This introduces fun stuff in the input system to take care of
modifying pointer coordinates to account for the app window
surface scaling. The input dispatcher is told about the scale
that is being applied to each window and, when there is one,
adjusts pointer events appropriately as they are being sent
to the transport.
Also modified is CompatibilityInfo, which has been greatly
simplified to not be so insane and incomprehendible. It is
now simple -- when constructed it determines if the given app
is compatible with the current screen size and density, and
that is that.
There are new APIs on ActivityManagerService to put applications
that we would traditionally consider compatible with larger screens
in compatibility mode. This is the start of a facility to have
a UI affordance for a user to switch apps in and out of
compatibility.
To test switching of modes, there is a new variation of the "am"
command to do this: am screen-compat [on|off] [package]
This mode switching has the fundamentals of restarting activities
when it is changed, though the state still needs to be persisted
and the overall mode switch cleaned up.
For the few small apps I have tested, things mostly seem to be
working well. I know of one problem with the text selection
handles being drawn at the wrong position because at some point
the window offset is being scaled incorrectly. There are
probably other similar issues around the interaction between
two windows because the different window coordinate spaces are
done in a hacky way instead of being formally integrated into
the window manager layout process.

Added some plumbing to enable the policy to intercept motion
events when the screen is off to handle wakeup if needed.
Added a basic concept of an external device to limit the scope
of the wakeup policy to external devices only. The wakeup policy
for internal devices should be based on explicit rules such as
policy flags in key layout files.
Moved isTouchEvent to native.
Ensure the dispatcher sends the right event type to userActivity
for non-touch pointer events like HOVER_MOVE and SCROLL.

Only initiate fallback key handling if the first key down was
not handled and there is no other fallback key already in progress.
This prevents spurious fallbacks from being generated when
applications handle the initial down but not repeated downs or the up.
Change-Id: I8a513896cf96b16dc502cd72291926d5532aa2ab
Added support for tracking the mouse position even when the mouse button
is not pressed. To avoid confusing existing applications, mouse movements
are reported using the new ACTION_HOVER_MOVE action when the mouse button
is not pressed.
Added some more plumbing for the scroll wheel axes. The values are
reported to Views but they are not yet handled by the framework.

The touch screen sometimes reports more than 10 pointers even though that's
all we asked for. When this happens, we start dropping events with more
than 10 pointers. This confuses applications and causes them to crash.
Raised the limit to 16 pointers.
Bug: 3331247
The default behavior was to identify all touch devices as touch screens.
External devices that are plugged in are more likely to be touch pads
not attached to a screen. Changed the default to be a touch pad
and renamed some internal constants to avoid confusion.
A certain mouse happens to also behave like a touch pad. That caused
problems because we would see multiple concurrent traces of motion events
coming from the same input device so we would batch them up.
Added code to ensure that we don't batch events unless they come from
the same *source* in addition to coming from the same *device*.
Due to batching or misbehaving drivers, it's possible for the set of
pointer ids to be different from what we expect when it comes time to
split motion events across windows. As a result, we can generate motion
events with 0 pointers. When we try to deliver those events, we cause
an error in the InputTransport so we tear down the InputChannel and kill
the application.
Added code to check out assumption about pointer ids and drop the
event gracefully instead.
Patched up the tests to take into account the change in default behavior
for identifying touch screens and touch pads.

This change implements two heuristics.
1. When events are older than 10 seconds, they are dropped.
2. If the application is currently busy processing an event and
the user touches a window belonging to a different application
then we drop the currently queued events so the other application
can start processing the gesture immediately.
Note that the system takes care of synthesizing cancelation events
automatically for any events that it drops.
Added some new handle types to allow the native dispatcher to
indirectly refer to the WindowManager's window state and app window
token. This was done to enable the dispatcher to identify the
application to which each window belongs but it also eliminates
some lookup tables and linear searches through the window list
on each key press.

Reject movements from other devices when one device is already down.
This fixes jittery behavior when the user moves the mouse and touches
the screen at the same time.
Change-Id: I99151c8f2596a3139720f776bcbc559d4b314878
Added support for loading the pointer icon from a resource.
Moved the system server related bits of the input manager out
of libui and into libinput since they do not need to be linked into
applications.
