Interfaces are meant to replace ThirdParty*.aidl/java files in same
directory long term. The differences in methods are on purpose and
reflect more recent design directions.

When an application wishes to do low-priority background work when the
device is otherwise idle (e.g. in a desk dock overnight), it declares
a service in its manifest that requires this permission:
android:permission="android.permission.BIND_IDLE_SERVICE
to launch, and which publishes this intent filter:
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.service.idle.IdleService" />
</intent-filter>
This string is declared in the API as IdleService.SERVICE_INTERFACE.
The service must be implemented by extending the new "IdleService"
class, which provides the API through which the system will communicate
with the app.
IdleService declares three methods, two of which are lifecycle callbacks
to the service, and the third of which is for the service itself to
invoke when appropriate. The lifecycle callbacks are
public abstract boolean onIdleStart();
public abstract void onIdleStop();
The first of these is a notification to the service that an idle
maintenance interval has begun. The service can then spin off
whatever non-UI work it wishes. When the interval is over, or if
the OS determines that idle services should be shut down immediately,
the onIdleStop() method will be invoked. The service must shut down
any background processing immediately when this method is called.
Both of these methods must return immediately. However, the OS
holds a wakelock on the application's behalf for the entire period
between the onIdleStart() and onIdleStop() callbacks. This means
that for system-arbitrated idle-time operation, the application does
not need to do any of its own wakelock management, and does not need
to hold any wakelock permissions.
The third method in IdleService is
public final void finishIdle();
Calling this method notifies the OS that the application has finished
whatever idle-time operation it needed to perform, and the OS is thus
free to release the wakelock and return to normal operation (or to
allow other apps to run their own idle services).
Currently the idle window granted to each idle service is ten minutes.
The OS is rather conservative about when these services are run; low
battery or any user activity will suppress them, and the OS will not
choose to run them particularly often.
Idle services are granted their execution windows in round-robin
fashion.

1. There are a few parcelable classes related to printing and accessibility
which are public but not added in the framework.aidl list so third parties
cannot write aidl interfaces that pass these classes. As these classes
are public it is resonable for devepers to be able to pass them between
processes.

- Introduce concept of ActivityStacks residing on Displays and able
to be decoupled and moved around.
- Add a new interface, IActivityContainer for clients to handle
ActivityStacks.
- Abandon ordering of stacks based on mStackState and instead use
ActivityDisplayInfo.stacks<ActivityStack> ordering.
Progress towards closing bug 12078972.

These are APIs for the new ThirdPartyPhone feature.
Note, these APIs can't actually be used yet on master for two reasons:
- initiating a call from a 3rd party app isn't possible yet because
the TelephonyManager APIs aren't being added to master.
- the TeleService implementation of these APIs aren't being added to
master.
Also, these APIs will be removed and the final ones will be added
once they're ready to be merged into master.

This change adds a new media router service whose purpose is to track
global state information associated with media routes. This service
publishes routes to the media router instance in application processes
and handles requested state changes such as selecting or unselecting
global routes. The service also binds to remote display provider
services which can offer new remote display routes to the system.
Includes a test application for manually verifying certain aspects
of the operation of the media router service.
The remote display provider interface is essentially a stripped down
media route provider interface as defined in the support library
media router implementation. For now, it is designed to be used only
by first parties to publish remote display routes to the system so
it is not exposed as public API in the SDK. In the future, the remote
display provider interface will most likely be deprecated and replaced
with a more featureful media route provider interface for third
party integration, similar to what is in the support library today.
Further patch sets integrate these new capabilities into the System UI
and Settings for connecting remote displays.

This interface allows applications to register services that offer
remote displays to the system. The system will then provide UI
to allow user to connect to these displays and enable mirroring.

1. For an app to print it creates a PrintDocumentAdapter implementation
which is passed to the print dialog activity. If the activity that
created the adapter is destroyed then the adapter, which may rely on
the activity state, may be in an invalid state. For example, an app
creates an adapter and calls print resuting in the app activity and
the print dialog activity being stacked. Now the user rotates the
device which triggers the recreating of the activity stack (assume the
app does not handle rotation). The recreated print dialog activity
receives the intent that originally created it with containing the
adapter that was constructed in the context of the old, now destroyed,
app activity instance.
To handle this we are limiting an app to be able to print only from
and activity and when this activity is destroyed we mark the adapter
as invalid which will result in hiding the print dialog activity. Note
that if the app process is killed we already handle this in the print
dialog activiy by registering a death recipient on the adapter binder.
2. In the PrintManager.PrintDocumentAdapterDelegate some of the state is
accessed only on the main thread and some from miltiple threads. The
code was trying to avoid locking for state that is not accessed by
multiple threads but this is error prone and the benefit does not
justify the complexity and added fragility. Now grabbing a lock all
the time.
3. The PrintJobConfigActivity waits for it to bind to the print spooler
service before instantiating its print controller and editor. However,
these can be accessed by invoking some of the activity cycle callbacks.
This change is adding null checks for the case where the activity
callbacks are called before the binding to the spooler is completed.

1. Before the print job activity was started asyncronously with
respect to the print call on to the print manager. This was
creating a situation where the starting activity may finish
before the print dialog appears which may lead to an orphaned
print document adapter with no data to print (as the UI is
is gone), or strange behaviors where the print dialog starts
on as a separate task.
To address this the pending intent for starting the print
dialog is not started by the print spooler since we cannot
call into it synchronously as we have to start its process
and bind to the spooler service which leads to jankyness in
the client app. Now the pending intent is created by the
print manager service in the synchronous print call so
from an app's perspective calling print starts the activity.
The side effect of this design is that the print dialog
activity may start before the system is bound to the spooler
service. In such a case the print activity cannot start
poking the print spooler state as the system registers
callback to observe the spooler state. To address this
the print spooler activity disables the UI and also binds
to the spooler service which happenes immediately after it
is started. As soon as the print dialog binds to the
service it starts the UI.
2. Fixed an bug in the printer adapter of the print dialog that
was leading to a crash if the only item in the adater is the
all pritners option and it is selected.
3. Piping the package name that started the printing so we can
pass it to the storage UI as a hint to open the last location
the app used.
