Continuing to send the last-rendered framebuffer to HWC on subsequent
frames allows the HWC to read partially-composed regions that haven't
changed, instead of re-composing from scratch.

If the virtual display surface is being consumed by the CPU, it can't
be allowed with HAL_PIXEL_FORMAT_IMPLEMENTATION_DEFINED since there is
no way for the CPU consumer to find out what format gralloc chose. So
for CPU-consumer surfaces, just use the BufferQueue's default format,
which can be set by the consumer.
A better but more invasive change would be to let the consumer require
a certain format (or set of formats?), and disallow the producer from
requesting a different format.

When this boardconfig is defined, even when all virtual display
composition is done by GLES, the HWC will be forced to copy from the
GLES framebuffer to the output buffer. On some hardware this allows
HWC to do format conversions that would otherwise have to be done by
the consumer, with worse power and/or performance.

When GLES isn't writing to the output buffer directly, request an
implementation-defined format with minimal usage flags, leaving the
format choice up to gralloc. On some hardware this allows HWC to do
format conversions during composition that would otherwise need to be
done (with worse power and/or performance) by the consumer.

In GLES-only mode, we don't have the outbuf acquire fence until after
GLES composition is done for the frame. We were setting the fence in
HWC's state immediately after dequeueing the buffer from the consumer,
before GLES had started. This fence got passed through HWC and on to
the consumer, so the consumer was reading the buffer before GLES was
done writing to it.
Now we update HWC's state just before set(), when we know we have the
right fence.

We weren't dequeing and setting the output buffer until just before
set(). This didn't allow HWC to make decisions in prepare() based on
the output buffer format, dimensions, etc.
Now we dequeue the output buffer at the beginning of the composition
loop and provide it to HWC in prepare. In GLES-only rendering, we may
have to cancel the buffer and acquire a new one if GLES requests a
buffer with properties different than the one we already dequeued.

This change adds an entire field to note whether the timestamp was
auto-generated by Surface or supplied by the application.
The value is used when deciding whether or not to drop frames based
on buffer presentation timestamps. If a desired presentation time
was set explicitly, BufferQueue will use that value to decide if a
frame should be dropped. If the timestamp was generated by Surface
at the time the buffer was queued, the timestamp is ignored.

this means they only have access to the consumer end of
the interface. we had a lot of code that assumed consumers
where holding a BufferQueue (i.e.: both ends), so most of
this change is untangling in fix that

we can now queue/dequeue a buffer in asynchrnous mode by using the
async parameter to these calls. async mode is only specified
with those calls (it is not modal anymore).
as a consequence it can only be specified when the buffer count
is not overidden, as error is returned otherwise.

this is the first step of a series of improvements to
BufferQueue. A few things happen in this change:
- setSynchronousMode() goes away as well as the SynchronousModeAllowed flag
- BufferQueue now defaults to (what used to be) synchronous mode
- a new "controlled by app" flag is passed when creating consumers and producers
those flags are used to put the BufferQueue in a mode where it
will never block if both flags are set. This is achieved by:
- returning an error from dequeueBuffer() if it would block
- making sure a buffer is always available by replacing
the previous buffer with the new one in queueBuffer()
(note: this is similar to what asynchrnous mode used to be)
Note: in this change EGL's swap-interval 0 is broken; this will be
fixed in another change.

The previous implementation assumed that the HWC could read and write
the same buffer on frames that involved both GLES and HWC composition.
It turns out some hardware can't do this. The new implementation
maintains a scratch buffer pool to use on these mixed frames, but on
GLES-only or HWC-only frames still does composition directly into the
output buffer.

If we're using a HWC that doesn't support virtual displays, or we have
more virtual displays than HWC supports concurrently, the
VirtualDisplaySurface should simply be a passthrough from source
(GLES) to sink.
This change also tries to distinguish between display types and HWC
display IDs a little better, though there's more to do here. Probably
needs a higher-level rethink; it's too error-prone now.

HWComposer didn't allow the virtual display output buffer to be set
directly, instead it always used the framebuffer target buffer.
DisplayDevice was only providing the framebuffer release fence to
DisplaySurfaces after a commit.
This change fixes both of these, so both HWComposer and DisplayDevice
should continue to work if VirtualDisplaySurface changes to use
separate framebuffer and output buffers. It's also more correct since
VirtualDisplaySurface uses the correct release fence when queueing the
buffer to the sink.

Previously we only queued a virtual display buffer to the sink when
the next frame was about to be displayed. This may delay the "last"
frame of an animation indefinitely. Now we queue the buffer as soon as
HWC set() returns and gives us the release fence.

BufferQueueInterposer allows a client to tap into a
IGraphicBufferProducer-based buffer queue, and modify buffers as they
pass from producer to consumer. VirtualDisplaySurface uses this to
layer HWC composition on top of GLES composition before passing the
buffer to the virtual display consumer.

DisplayDevice now has a DisplaySurface instead of using
FramebufferSurface directly. FramebufferSurface implements
DisplaySurface, and so does the new VirtualDisplaySurface class.
DisplayDevice now always has a surface, not just for virtual displays.
In this change VirtualDisplaySurface is just a stub; buffers still go
directly from GLES to the final consumer.
