This change sets LOCAL_SDK_VERSION for all packages where
this is possible without breaking the build, and
LOCAL_PRIVATE_PLATFORM_APIS := true otherwise.
Setting one of these two will be made required soon, and this
is a change in preparation for that. Not setting LOCAL_SDK_VERSION
makes the app implicitly depend on the bootclasspath, which is
often not required. This change effectively makes depending on
private apis opt-in rather than opt-out.
Test: make relevant packages

"signatureOrSystem" permissions are no longer available to all apps
residing en the /system partition. Instead, there is a new /system/priv-app
directory, and only apps whose APKs are in that directory are allowed
to use signatureOrSystem permissions without sharing the platform cert.
This will reduce the surface area for possible exploits of system-
bundled applications to try to gain access to permission-guarded
operations.
The ApplicationInfo.FLAG_SYSTEM flag continues to mean what it is
says in the documentation: it indicates that the application apk was
bundled on the /system partition. A new hidden flag FLAG_PRIVILEGED
has been introduced that reflects the actual right to access these
permissions.
At some point the "system" permission category will be
renamed to "privileged".

Every available shared-storage volume is backed up, tagged with its
ordinal in the set of mounted shared volumes. This is an approximation
of "internal + the external card". This lets us restore things to the
same volume [or "equivalent" volume, in the case of a cross-model
restore] as they originated on.
Also fixed a bug in the handling of files/dirs with spaces in
their names.
