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.

This changes the PAC support to not broadcast the Proxy information until
the Local Proxy has started up and successfully bound to a port so that
the local proxy information can be guaranteed to be owned by the proxy.

Using intents for reader mode doesn't work well for 2 reasons:
1) Intents are used to resolve, but in reader mode we already
know where to resolve to. Additionally, dispatching an intent
causes additional latency.
2) Using intents with foreground dispatch was tricky; for every
call to onNewIntent() with a new tag, there was a call to
onPause(), which effectively disabled reader mode again,
causing a discovery loop.
Instead, let the app register a callback, and call that when
we discover a new tag. Also, add new flag to disable platform
sounds, and to change the presence check delay.

1. Added support for selecting a printer from the all printers activity
that is not in the initial printer selection drop down. The user
initially sees a sub set of the printers in the drop down and the
last option is to see all printers in a separate activity. Some
of the printers in the all printers activity are not shown in the
initial drop down.
2. Refactored printer discovery by adding (private for now) printer
discovery app facing APIs. These APIs are needed to support multiple
printer selection activities (print dialog and all printers activities)
and also the settings for showing all printers for a service.
Now multiple apps can request observing for printers and there is
a centralized mediator that ensures the same printer discovery
session is used. The mediator dispatches printer discovery specific
requests to print services. It also aggregates discovered printers
and delivers them to the interested apps. The mediator minimizes
printer discovery session creation and starting and stopping discovery
by sharing the same discovery session and discovery window with
multiple apps. Lastly, the mediator takes care of print services
enabled during discovery by bringing them up to the current
discovery state (create discovery session and start discovery if
needed). The mediator also reports disappearing of the printers
of a service removed during discovery and notifies a newly
registered observers for the currnet printers if the observers are
added during an active printer discovery session.
3. Fixed bugs in the print UI and implemented some UX tweaks.

This switches the PacProcessor over to an Android Service. The service
is bound and unbound by the PacManager, which also adds it to the
ServiceManager, allowing for Context-Free access by the PacProxySelector
in all DVMs.

1. Added past printer history tracking and merging favorite printers
with discovered printers.
2. Added save as PDF support.
3. Added all printers activity with search capability and optional
add printers chooser (if any print service provides add printers
activity)
4. Refactored the printer discovery session APIs. Now one session
can have multiple window discovery windows and the session stores
the printers found during past discovery periods.
5. Merged the print spooler and the print spooler service - much
simpler and easier to maintain.
