Initial implementation, tracking use of the vibrator, GPS,
and location reports.
Also includes an update to battery stats to also keep track of
vibrator usage (since I had to be in the vibrator code anyway
to instrument it).
The service itself is only half-done. Currently no API to
retrieve the data (which once there will allow us to show you
which apps are currently causing the GPS to run and who has
recently accessed your location), it doesn't persist its data
like it should, and no way to tell it to reject app requests
for various operations.
But hey, it's a start!

I had to re-do this change for MR1 because LocationManagerService changed
so much. Here is the original change description:
Add package-name-prefix blacklist for location updates.
The Settings.Secure value locationPackagePrefixBlacklist and
locationPackagePrefixWhitelist contains comma seperated package-name
prefixes.
Location & geo-fence updates are silently dropped if the receiving
package name has a prefix on the blacklist. Status updates are
not affected. All other API's work as before.
A content observer is used so run-time updates to the blacklist
apply immediately. There is both a blacklist and a whitelist.
The blacklist applies first, and then exemptions are allowed
from the whitelist. In other words, if your package name prefix
matches both the black AND white list, then it is allowed.

Themes: Fused Location, Geofencing, LocationRequest.
API changes
o Fused location is always returned when asking for location by Criteria.
o Fused location is never returned as a LocationProvider object, nor returned
as a provider String. This wouldn't make sense because the current API
design assumes that LocationProvider's have fixed properties (accuracy, power
etc).
o The fused location engine will tune itself based on the criteria passed
by applications.
o Deprecate LocationProvider. Apps should use fused location (via Criteria
class), instead of enumerating through LocationProvider objects. It is
also over-engineered: designed for a world with a plethora of location
providers that never materialized.
o The Criteria class is also over-engineered, with many methods that aren't
currently used, but for now we won't deprecate them since they may have
value in the future. It is now used to tune the fused location engine.
o Deprecate getBestProvider() and getProvider().
o Add getLastKnownLocation(Criteria), so we can return last known
fused locations.
o Apps with only ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION _can_ now use the GPS, but the location
they receive will be fudged to a 1km radius. They can also use NETWORK
and fused locatoins, which are fudged in the same way if necessary.
o Totally deprecate Criteria, in favor of LocationRequest.
Criteria was designed to map QOS to a location provider. What we
really need is to map QOS to _locations_.
The death knell was the conflicting ACCURACY_ constants on
Criteria, with values 1, 2, 3, 1, 2. Yes not a typo.
o Totally deprecate LocationProvider.
o Deprecate test/mock provider support. They require a named provider,
which is a concept we are moving away from. We do not yet have a
replacement, but I think its ok to deprecate since you also
need to have 'allow mock locations' checked in developer settings.
They will continue to work.
o Deprecate event codes associated with provider status. The fused
provider is _always_ available.
o Introduce Geofence data object to provide an easier path fowards
for polygons etc.
Implementation changes
o Fused implementation: incoming (GPS and NLP) location fixes are given
a weight, that exponentially decays with respect to age and accuracy.
The half-life of age is ~60 seconds, and the half-life of accuracy is
~20 meters. The fixes are weighted and combined to output a fused
location.
o Move Fused Location impl into
frameworks/base/packages/FusedLocation
o Refactor Fused Location behind the IProvider AIDL interface. This allow us
to distribute newer versions of Fused Location in a new APK, at run-time.
o Introduce ServiceWatcher.java, to refactor code used for run-time upgrades of
Fused Location, and the NLP.
o Fused Location is by default run in the system server (but can be moved to
any process or pacakge, even at run-time).
o Plumb the Criteria requirements through to the Fused Location provider via
ILocation.sendExtraCommand(). I re-used this interface to avoid modifying the
ILocation interface, which would have broken run-time upgradability of the
NLP.
o Switch the geofence manager to using fused location.
o Clean up 'adb shell dumpsys location' output.
o Introduce config_locationProviderPackageNames and
config_overlay_locationProviderPackageNames to configure the default
and overlay package names for Geocoder, NLP and FLP.
o Lots of misc cleanup.
o Improve location fudging. Apply random vector then quantize.
o Hide internal POJO's from clients of com.android.location.provider.jar
(NLP and FLP). Introduce wrappers ProviderRequestUnbundled and
ProviderPropertiesUnbundled.
o Introduce ProviderProperties to collapse all the provider accuracy/
bearing/altitude/power plumbing (that is deprecated anyway).
o DELETE lots of code: DummyLocationProvider,
o Rename the (internal) LocationProvider to LocationProviderBase.
o Plumb pid, uid and packageName throughout
LocationManagerService#Receiver to support future features.

Previously any geofence (proximity alert) would turn the GPS on at full rate.
Now, we modify the GPS interval with the distance to the nearest geofence.
A speed of 100m/s is assumed to calculate the next GPS update.
Also
o Major refactor of geofencing code, to make it easier to continue to improve.
o Discard proximity alerts when an app is removed.
o Misc cleanup of nearby code. There are other upcoming changes
that make this a good time for some house-keeping.
TODO:
The new geofencing heuristics are much better than before, but still
relatively naive. The next steps could be:
- Improve boundary detection
- Improve update thottling for large geofences
- Consider velocity when throttling

The Geocorder interface is not part of the Android core. It
requires a backend service which may or may not be available
on a device. The new isImplemented static method allows
apps to discover whether the Geocorder is in fact available
on the device.

The passive location provider allows receiving location updates without
actually triggering them. This allows an application to receive location
updates that are being generated due to other clients of the location manager.

LocationManagerService now uses new Java interface LocationProviderInterface
rather than LocationProviderProxy to refer to location providers internally.
LocationProviderProxy and the ILocationProvider binder interface are only
used for location providers implemented as services (NetworkLocationProvider)
Built-in location providers (GpsLocationProvider and mock providers) now just
implement LocationProviderInterface rather than using a Binder interface and proxy object.
Delete obsolete and unused TestLocationProvider class.

The network location and geocode provider services are now started on demand
and their interfaces are now retrieved via bindService().
Remove obsolete LocationManager installLocationProvider() and installGeocodeProvider() methods.
Add abstract class android.location.provider.GeocodeProvider to provide a public wrapper to
the IGeocodeProvider Binder interface. Replaces the LocationManager.GeocodeProvider interface.
Rename LocationProviderImpl to android.location.provider.LocationProvider.
Move LocationManager.reportLocation() to android.location.provider.LocationProvider,
so all methods related to external location providers are now all in one class.
Avoid calling from the Location Manager Service into providers that are disabled so we
do not start the network location service unnecessarily.

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.

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.
