- removed GroupMessages API, groupchat messages are merged with messages. So where we used to have
GroupMessages.CONTENT_URI, now we have Messages.GROUP_MESSAGES_CONTENT_URI. Messages api now has a flag
IS_GROUP_CHAT to indicate that a message is a groupchat message.
- instead of storing 'provider', 'account', 'contact' in the messages table, store a 'thread_id' column instead.
thread_id is really just the contact_id for both messages and groupchat messages.
- add getContentUriByThreadId() api, for now, retained the old getContentUriByContact(), but it's deprecated.
- all public apis and framework changes have been reviewed by relevant folks in our branch (e.g romainguy)
- all new public apis are @hidden; they will still get reviewed by api council once we're in git
- other than that, it's mostly GlobalSearch and search dialog stuff, a new apps provider, and some tweaks
to the contacts provider that was reviewed by jham

framework classes to deal with the new property. Also update various
documentation that mentions the default ringtones.
Use the build property as the default alert when the user has not chosen
an alert for an alarm. This is also used if the alarm alert is null when
the alarm fires.

LocationManagerService now listens for changes to settings,
making LocationManager.updateProviders() unnecessary.
Removed LocationManager.updateProviders()
Added Settings.Secure.setLocationProviderEnabled(), which is a thread-safe way
of enabling or disabling a single location provider.
This is safer than reading, modifying and writing the LOCATION_PROVIDERS_ALLOWED directly.

Added a new WITH_EMAIL_OR_IM_FILTER_URI to find people with a given string as either an E-mail or IM address. This cleans up the original code, and lets us handle duplicates when there are multiple ContactMethod matches for a single person. (We don't get GROUP BY through the ContentProvider interface.)
In ContactsListActivity we don't show possibly-incorrect labels when in MODE_QUERY_PICK_TO_VIEW, as any labels and values would be identical. (The people appearing in that list are there because their ContactMethod matches the query.)
