Target identification is now fully native.
Fixed a couple of minor issues related to input injection.
Native input enabled by default, can be disabled by setting
WindowManagerPolicy.ENABLE_NATIVE_INPUT_DISPATCH to false.

Refactored the code to eliminate potential deadlocks due to re-entrant
calls from the policy into the dispatcher. Also added some plumbing
that will be used to notify the framework about ANRs.

The old dispatch mechanism has been left in place and continues to
be used by default for now. To enable native input dispatch,
edit the ENABLE_NATIVE_DISPATCH constant in WindowManagerPolicy.
Includes part of the new input event NDK API. Some details TBD.
To wire up input dispatch, as the ViewRoot adds a window to the
window session it receives an InputChannel object as an output
argument. The InputChannel encapsulates the file descriptors for a
shared memory region and two pipe end-points. The ViewRoot then
provides the InputChannel to the InputQueue. Behind the
scenes, InputQueue simply attaches handlers to the native PollLoop object
that underlies the MessageQueue. This way MessageQueue doesn't need
to know anything about input dispatch per-se, it just exposes (in native
code) a PollLoop that other components can use to monitor file descriptor
state changes.
There can be zero or more targets for any given input event. Each
input target is specified by its input channel and some parameters
including flags, an X/Y coordinate offset, and the dispatch timeout.
An input target can request either synchronous dispatch (for foreground apps)
or asynchronous dispatch (fire-and-forget for wallpapers and "outside"
targets). Currently, finding the appropriate input targets for an event
requires a call back into the WindowManagerServer from native code.
In the future this will be refactored to avoid most of these callbacks
except as required to handle pending focus transitions.
End-to-end event dispatch mostly works!
To do: event injection, rate limiting, ANRs, testing, optimization, etc.
