Fix an issue where enterTouchMode would remove focus from the
view that already has focus and is focusableInTouchMode. This
causes issues with WebView, as it updates internal state when
losing and gaining focus.

LayoutTransition used to depend on child views being added/removed or
shown/hidden in the transition container. These evens would trigger animations
to fade the child view as well as those to animate the side-affected changes
to sibling views. This CL enables a new feature in LayoutTransition that
enables animating any changes to the layout of the children in the container
whenever a layout occurs. For example, you can change the LayoutParams of a
child view and call requestLayout() to automatically animate those changes.
This capability is not enabled by default. To enable, call the new
LayoutTransition.enableTransitionType(LayoutTransition.CHANGING) method.

Usefulness: Keep track of the current user location in the screen when
traversing the it. Enabling structural and directional
navigation over all elements on the screen. This enables
blind users that know the application layout to efficiently
locate desired elements as opposed to try touch exploring the
region where the the element should be - very tedious.
Rationale: There are two ways to implement accessibility focus One is
to let accessibility services keep track of it since they
have access to the screen content, and another to let the view
hierarchy keep track of it. While the first approach would
require almost no work on our part it poses several challenges
which make it a sub-optimal choice. Having the accessibility focus
in the accessibility service would require that service to scrape
the window content every time it changes to sync the view tree
state and the accessibility focus location. Pretty much the service
will have to keep an off screen model of the screen content. This
could be quite challenging to get right and would incur performance
cost for the multiple IPCs to repeatedly fetch the screen content.
Further, keeping virtual accessibility focus (i.e. in the service)
would require sync of the input and accessibility focus. This could
be challenging to implement right as well. Also, having an unlimited
number of accessibility services we cannot guarantee that they will
have a proper implementation, if any, to allow users to perform structural
navigation of the screen content. Assuming two accessibility
services implement structural navigation via accessibility focus,
there is not guarantee that they will behave similarly by default,
i.e. provide some standard way to navigate the screen content.
Also feedback from experienced accessibility researchers, specifically
T.V Raman, provides evidence that having virtual accessibility focus
creates many issues and it is very hard to get right.
Therefore, keeping accessibility focus in the system will avoid
keeping an off-screen model in accessibility services, it will always
be in sync with the state of the view hierarchy and the input focus.
Also this will allow having a default behavior for traversing the
screen via this accessibility focus that is consistent in all
accessibility services. We provide accessibility services with APIs to
override this behavior but all of them will perform screen traversal
in a consistent way by default.
Behavior: If accessibility is enabled the accessibility focus is the leading one
and the input follows it. Putting accessibility focus on a view moves
the input focus there. Clearing the accessibility focus of a view, clears
the input focus of this view. If accessibility focus is on a view that
cannot take input focus, then no other view should have input focus.
In accessibility mode we initially give accessibility focus to the topmost
view and no view has input focus. This ensures consistent behavior accross
all apps. Note that accessibility focus can move hierarchically in the
view tree and having it at the root is better than putting it where the
input focus would be - at the first input focusable which could be at
an arbitrary depth in the view tree. By default not all views are reported
for accessibility, only the important ones. A view may be explicitly labeled
as important or not for accessibility, or the system determines which one
is such - default. Important views for accessibility are all views that are
not dumb layout managers used only to arrange their chidren. Since the same
content arrangement can be obtained via different combintation of layout
managers, such managers cannot be used to reliably determine the application
structure. For example, a user should see a list as a list view with several
list items and each list item as a text view and a button as opposed to seeing
all the layout managers used to arrange the list item's content.
By default only important for accessibility views are regared for accessibility
purposes. View not regarded for accessibility neither fire accessibility events,
nor are reported being on the screen. An accessibility service may request the
system to regard all views. If the target SDK of an accessibility services is
less than JellyBean, then all views are regarded for accessibility.
Note that an accessibility service that requires all view to be ragarded for
accessibility may put accessibility focus on any view. Hence, it may implement
any navigational paradigm if desired. Especially considering the fact that
the system is detecting some standard gestures and delegates their processing
to an accessibility service. The default implementation of an accessibility
services performs the defualt navigation.

Add layout bound metadata to 9-patch files and make layouts take them into account.
This CL contains a proposed API for dealing with layout bounds.
This solution exposes:
1. Class: Insets - for storing layout Insets (and later possibly padding).
2. Methods: View:(get/set)LayoutInsets() - for storing layoutBounds.
3. Methods: ViewGroup:(get/set)LayoutMode() - for controlling layoutMode.
It also iuncudes the changes to GridLayout to support layout bounds.

Moved the core logic of Vibrator into SystemVibrator, potentially
allowing for the creation of other Vibrator subclasses.
Fixed several places where we were creating new Vibrator
instances unnecessarily instead of getting it from the Context.
It is safe to make Vibrator abstract because its constructor
was hidden from the SDK so it was not possible to subclass it.

This change allows the InputManager to keep track of what input
devices are registered with the system and when they change.
It needs to do this so that it can properly clear its cache of
input device properties (especially the key map!) when changes
occur.
Added new API so that applications can register listeners for
input device changes.
Fixed a minor bug in EventHub where it didn't handle EPOLLHUP
properly so it would spam the log about unsupposed epoll events
until inotify noticed that the device was gone and removed it.

We now have an animation to apply to the thing behind the lock
screen animation when it isn't on the wallpaper, which looks
similar to the animation we use when both are on the wallpaper.
In implementing this, cleaned up the code to figure out up-front
which animation to run, getting rid of that kludgy thing that
cleared the window animation if the wallpaper was not being used
for the lower windows.

1. Some applications are keeping around visible views off screen
to improve responsiveness by drawing them in layers, etc. While
such a view is not visible on the screen the accessibility layer
was reporting it since it was visible. Now the check is improved
to verify whether the view is attached, is in visible window,
is visible, and has a rectangle that is not clipped by its
predecessors.
2. AccessibilityNodeInfo bounds in screen were not properly set
since only the top left point was offset appropriately to
take into account any predecessor's transformation matrix
and the not transformed width and height were used. Now
the bounds are properly offset.

Stuff that's better:
1. We maintain two queues in a way that ensures that WebView and
WebKit both see consistent streams of events, even in cases
where WebKit times out. We send ACTION_CANCEL if necessary, etc.
2. All pointer events go through the same channel, including
hover and click ("touch up") events, to ensure correct ordering.
3. Given that the input events are in a separate queue, we can
force execution of all of these events whenever we like, making new
latency optimizations possible.
4. The entire history of each touch event is sent to the web
application to enable smoother interaction.
5. The web application may choose to intercept a touch event stream
at any time by issuing "prevent default". Previously, it could only
prevent default on the initial down event. The new behavior is more
standards compliant.

Change View methods awakenScrollBars and scrollTo to post their
invalidation on the animation timer. Since these are often used in
computeScroll or similar to continue scrolling or flinging it should
not prevent other posted events from being processed before the frame
is actually drawn. (All changes in scroll position, etc. are
immediately reflected after the calls and do not need a draw to
present correct data about scroll position to apps.)
Don't accumulate floating point error while dragging
ScrollView/HorizontalScrollView.

Instead of each application loading the KeyCharacterMap from
the file system, get them from the input manager service as
part of the InputDevice object.
Refactored InputManager to be a proper singleton instead of
having a bunch of static methods.
InputManager now maintains a cache of all InputDevice objects
that it has loaded. Currently we never invalidate the cache
which can cause InputDevice to return stale motion ranges if
the device is reconfigured. This will be fixed in a future change.
Added a fake InputDevice with ID -1 to represent the virtual keyboard.

We now allow processes that currently have stopping activities to
be managed as if they were done stopping, so that memory trimming
can be done before the process goes to the background. Hopefully
this will reduce cases where the processes goes to the background
and immediately gets killed, but wouldn't have had to be killed if
it had a chance to trim its memory.
Also change window memory trimming to always do the aggressive
trimming when memory is critical, even if not on a low-end device.
And tweak web view trimming to not trim for foreground UI events.

Rather than normal Activities (which have a host of problems
when used for this purpose), screen savers are now a
special kind of Service that can add views to its own
special window (TYPE_DREAM, in the SCREENSAVER layer).
Dreams are now launched by the power manager; whenever it is
about to turn the screen off, it asks the window manager if
it wants to run a screen saver instead. (http://b/5677408)
Also, the new config_enableDreams bool allows the entire
feature to be switched on or off in one place. It is
currently switched off (and the APIs are all @hidden).
