6cdee9831d Rewrite input transport using sockets.
Since we will not longer be modifying events in place, we don't need
to use an ashmem region for input.  Simplified the code to instead
use a socket of type SOCK_SEQPACKET.

This is part of a series of changes to improve input system pipelining.

e959ed2533 Add initial API for stylus and mouse buttons.
Added the concept of pointer properties in a MotionEvent.
This is currently used to track the pointer tool type to enable
applications to distinguish finger touches from a stylus.

Button states are also reported to application as part of touch events.

There are no new actions for detecting changes in button states.
The application should instead query the button state from the
MotionEvent and take appropriate action as needed.

A good time to check the button state is on ACTION_DOWN.

As a side-effect, applications that do not support multiple buttons
will treat primary, secondary and tertiary buttons identically
for all touch events.

The back button on the mouse is mapped to KEYCODE_BACK
and the forward button is mapped to KEYCODE_FORWARD.

Added basic plumbing for the secondary mouse button to invoke
the context menu, particularly in lists.

Added clamp and split methods on MotionEvent to take care of
common filtering operations so we don't have them scattered
in multiple places across the framework.

Also added some more unit tests.

3e3414636c Add support for arbitrary axes in MotionEvents.
This change makes it possible to extend the set of axes that
are reported in MotionEvents by defining new axis constants.

The MotionEvent object is now backed by its C++ counterpart
to avoid having to maintain multiple representations of the
same data.

02d85b5021 Add support for fallback keycodes.
This change enables the framework to synthesize key events to implement
default behavior when an application does not handle a key.
For example, this change enables numeric keypad keys to perform
their associated special function when numlock is off.

The application is informed that it is processing a fallback keypress
so it can choose to ignore it.

Added a new keycode for switching applications.

Added ALT key deadkeys.

New default key mappings:
- ESC -> BACK
- Meta+ESC -> HOME
- Alt+ESC -> MENU
- Meta+Space -> SEARCH
- Meta+Tab -> APP_SWITCH

Fixed some comments.
Fixed some tests.

8149991234 Tell system server whether the app handled input events.
Refactored ViewRoot, NativeActivity and related classes to tell the
dispatcher whether an input event was actually handled by the application.

This will be used to move more of the global default key processing
into the system server instead of the application.

af30ff6020 Add support for secure views.
Added the MotionEvent.FLAG_WINDOW_IS_OBSCURED flag which is set by the
input manager whenever another visible window is partly or wholly obscured
the target of a touch event so that applications can filter touches
accordingly.

Added a "filterTouchesWhenObscured" attribute to View which can be used to
enable filtering of touches when the view's window is obscured.

5c1ed84a2d Add support for new input sources.
Added several new coordinate values to MotionEvents to capture
touch major/minor area, tool major/minor area and orientation.

Renamed NDK input constants per convention.

Added InputDevice class in Java which will eventually provide
useful information about available input devices.

Added APIs for manufacturing new MotionEvent objects with multiple
pointers and all necessary coordinate data.

Fixed a bug in the input dispatcher where it could get stuck with
a pointer down forever.

Fixed a bug in the WindowManager where the input window list could
end up containing stale removed windows.

Fixed a bug in the WindowManager where the input channel was being
removed only after the final animation transition had taken place
which caused spurious WINDOW DIED log messages to be printed.

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).
