Improve Location object.

Add getElapsedRealtimeNano():

Currently Location just has getTime() and setTime() based on UTC time.
This is entirely unreliable since it is not guaranteed monotonic.
There is a lot of code that compares fix age based on deltas -
and it is all broken in the case of a system clock change. System
clock can change when switching cellular networks (and in some
cases when switching towers).

Document the meaning of getAccuracy():
It is the horizontal, 95% confidence radius.

Make some fields mandatory if they are reported by a LocationProvider:

All Locations returned by a LocationProvider must include at the
minimum a lat, long, timestamps, and accuracy. This is necessary
to perform fused location. There are no public API's for applications
to feed locations into a location provider so this should not cause
any breakage.

If a LocationProvider does not fill in enough fields on a Location
object then it is dropped, and logged.
