Early during the boot, before activity manager is ready to handle
permission checks, the system needs to be able to change the display
state. Added a hardcoded exemption for AID_SYSTEM (which already
has permission to talk to surface flinger anyhow).

it used to spawn its own thread and return the main thread
to the binder thread pool -- this was confusing the naming
of things in the kernel.

ISurface was only used to get the IGraphicBufferProducer from
a Layer. It's now replaced by a BBinder subclass / IBinder and
is only used as a handle to the surface, to both refer to it
and manage its life-time.
Also cleaned-up a bit the ISurfaceComposer interface and
"create layer" code path.

The functionality of LayerBase and Layer is folded
into Layer. There wasn't a need for this abstraction
anymore.

DisplayDevices are now keyed of the wp<IBinder> the client uses.
DisplayID has now become DisplayType which is just used to identify
physical displays (as opposed to virtual displays such as wifi displays).

Use only display tokens in the API to refer to new displays.
Don't require the caller to specify the display when creating
a surface (since in general a surface could be shown on
any display).
This is intended to be a minimum change just to update the API.
Note that SurfaceFlinger still uses DisplayID in a few places
internally that might cause some features not to work properly
when there are multiple displays (LayerScreenshot, for example).

mostly refactored SurfaceFlinger.h, but also removed dead code.
cleaned-up a few includes as well.
