This change replaces ILocationCollector with a more general mechanism that
passes locations received from a provider to all other providers.
The network location provider now uses this to implement the location collector.
In the future, this could be used to inject network locations to the GPS
as aiding data.
This change also removes the now obsolete permission INSTALL_LOCATION_COLLECTOR.

Also added new permissions android.permission.INSTALL_LOCATION_PROVIDER
and android.permission.INSTALL_LOCATION_COLLECTOR to the public API.

Remove two second timeout for wakelock when broadcasting events to
location listeners. Instead, hold wakelock until receipt of the event
is acknowledged, either via a Binder call or the
PendingIntent.OnFinished interface.

This fixes a hack that was added when NetworkLocationManager was moved out of the framework.
This also lays the groundwork for supporting location providers outside of the system process.

Remove 1 Hz "heartbeat" polling of location providers from LocationManagerService.
Now location providers report their location to LocationManagerService via
LocationManager.setLocation() rather than waiting to be polled.
This reduces GPS fix latency by up to one second.
Remove LocationProvderImpl.getLocation().
Since we are no longer polling, this method is no longer necessary.

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.
