To support this feature, the input dispatcher now allows input
events to be acknowledged out-of-order. As a result, the
consumer can choose to defer handling an input event from one
device (because it is building a big batch) while continuing
to handle input events from other devices.
The InputEventReceiver now sends a notification when a batch
is pending. The ViewRoot handles this notification by scheduling
a draw on the next sync. When the draw happens, the InputEventReceiver
is instructed to consume all pending batched input events, the
input event queue is fully processed (as much as possible),
and then the ViewRoot performs traversals as usual.
With these changes in place, the input dispatch latency is
consistently less than one frame as long as the application itself
isn't stalled. Input events are delivered to the application
as soon as possible and are handled as soon as possible. In practice,
it is no longer possible for an application to build up a huge
backlog of touch events.
This is part of a series of changes to improve input system pipelining.

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.

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).
