efa1085066 Add new native Looper API.
This allows us to avoid exposing the file descriptor of
the event queue; instead, you attach an event queue to
a looper.  This will also should allow native apps to be
written without the need for a separate thread, by attaching
the event queue to the main thread's looper and scheduling
their own messages there.

189ed23c10 Implement default key handling for native code.
The native code now maintains a list of all keys that may use
default handling.  If the app finishes one of these keys
without handling it, the key will be passed back off to Java
for default treatment.

4d96bb6ae3 First stab at attaching native event dispatching.
Provides the basic infrastructure for a
NativeActivity's native code to get an object representing
its event stream that can be used to read input events.

Still work to do, probably some API changes, and reasonable
default key handling (so that for example back will still
work).

f4a4ec2063 Even more native input dispatch work in progress.
Added more tests.
Fixed a regression in Vector.
Fixed bugs in pointer tracking.
Fixed a starvation issue in PollLoop when setting or removing callbacks.
Fixed a couple of policy nits.

Modified the internal representation of MotionEvent to be more
efficient and more consistent.

Added code to skip/cancel virtual key processing when there are multiple
pointers down.  This helps to better disambiguate virtual key presses
from stray touches (such as cheek presses).

e839a589bf Native input dispatch rewrite work in progress.
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.
