We need to be able to perform very lengthy operations on some threads
(e.g. the I/O thread responsible for installing multi-gigabyte APKs) but
still have long-run deadlock/hang detection applied to those threads.
Previously the watchdog mechanism applied the same policy to all
monitored threads: unresponsive after 60 seconds => restart the system.
Now, each monitored entity can have its own independent timeout after
which the watchdog declares deadlock and restarts the runtime. The
halfway-finished intermediate thread stacks are dumped based on the
specific entity's declared timeout, not the global 30 second checking
interval.
With that new mechanism in place, the Package Manager's lengthy-I/O
thread watchdog timeout is raised to 10 minutes.
