Applications can now specify two more aspects of the restore process: whether
they need to run with their own custom Application subclass rather than being
launched in the usual restricted mode during restore, and whether it's okay for
the backup manager to kill the app process once restore has completed. The new
manifest attributes for these are, respectively, android:restoreNeedsApplication
and android:killAfterRestore.
If unspecified in the manifest, restoreNeedsApplication is false, and
killAfterRestore is true.
In order to support kill-after-restore cleanly, this change also adds a new
system-process-only interface to the Activity Manager, which will schedule a
"commit suicide" event on the target app's main thread looper.
The framework backup agents have been given the appropriate new backup
attributes as well.

Update 4.xml to the most recent APIs.
Expose the presence/absence of IccCards in the system.
This is needed to fix bug 2033811 which needs to show
some SIM menus in the Mms app and Contact apps only if
there is a SIM and on CDMA there is no sims yet.
The current implementation assumes CDMA never has an
IccCard this is true at the moment but needs to change.

Some of this is temporary (in particular the two approaches for getting
process memory, one working but horrible, the other not working but
preferred) until I figure out the best way to do it.

This change adds the EventHandler error codes to WebViewClient for the public
api. Previously, the api was ambiguous about the value of the errorCode
parameter and falsely documented that the values are HTTP status codes.
This introduces a new mechanism to define features associated with
a platform, query the current device for the available features,
and enforce that apps requiring features that aren't available can't
be installed.
Also now allows uses-library to specify that a library is optional,
so the lack of such a library will not prevent the app from being
installed (but if it does exist it will be correctly linked into
the app).

Add new manifest/aapt support for specifying device features an application
requires. The aapt badging now returns these (as well as uses-permission since
I need to look for those anyway); if an app doesn't explicitly request the
camera feature but does request the permission, then aapt will say that it has
requested both the basic camera feature as well as the autofocus feature.
Here's what you put in your manifest to say you need a camera but don't need
autofocus:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera" />
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera.autofocus" android:required="false" />
Here's what will be seen from aapt:
uses-permission:'android.permission.CAMERA'
uses-feature:'android.hardware.camera'
uses-feature-not-required:'android.hardware.camera.autofocus'

Unfortunately we are stuck with the donut ones, can't change these in Eclair
to be the more correct names.

Now that we've merged ContactsContract and are relying on
compatibility mode, we're marking the previous public
contacts API as deprecated.
Fixes http://b/2076016
One of the problems I have been noticing is background services
sitting around running and using resources. Some times this is
due to the app developer doing this when they shouldn't, but there
are also a number of issues with the current Service interaction
model that make it very difficult (or impossible) to avoid
getting services stuck in the started state. This is a
change/enhancement to the Service API to try to address this.
The main change is that Service.onStart() has been deprecated,
replaced with a new Service.onStartCommand() that allows the
service to better control how the system should manage it. The
key part here is a new result code returned by the function, telling
the system what it should do with the service afterwards:
- START_STICKY is basically the same as the previous behavior,
where we usually leave the service running. The only difference
is that it if it gets restarted because its process is killed,
onStartCommand() will be called on the new service with a null
Intent instead of not being called at all.
- START_NOT_STICKY says that, upon returning to the system, if
its process is killed with no remaining start commands to
deliver, then the service will be stopped instead of restarted.
This makes a lot more sense for services that are intended to
only run while executing commands sent to them.
- START_REDELIVER_INTENT is like START_NOT_STICKY, except if
the service's process is killed before it calls stopSelf()
for a given intent, that intent will be re-delivered to it
until it completes (unless after 4 or more tries it still
can't complete, at which point we give up).

- @hides relevant APIs
- removes relevant javadoc
- enforces that only system apps can participate
note: general support is still there, will be easy to reenable when we are ready.
Javadoc, and unhide the first pieces of the Bluetooth API.
With this commit there is enough public API to connect and use an RFCOMM
connection between Bluetooth devices.
The window manager now detects when a transition between two
wallpaper activities is happening, and switches to a new set
of animations for that. The animations I defined here are just
an arbitrary something that can work in this case.
support these functions.
This extends the MediaPlayerControl interface with some new methods, and uses
reflection to detect whether the old or new interface is used by an application.
This API is becoming seriously abused, so now it is deprecated and has
become a no-op.
As an alternative, there is now a new API that allows you to make a service
be in the foreground but requires providing a persistent notification to
go along with this state, allowing the user to know about and control it.

Unhide the broadcast intent that signals completion of the TTS language
This is pretty much the same thing as startSearch, except it also launches the
query. We enforce that this can only be done for the package of the app that is
associated with the search mananger (e.g you can't trigger a contacts search
from anywhere).
- Do better about figuring out when to stop them and other related window
management.
- Fix problem where we were not redrawing the surface when the orientation
changed. This was the cause of the device hang.
