associated to a native window. the default is two.

This change adds the methods necessary to use sp<> to handle refcounting
android_native_window_t and android_native_buffer_t. The new methods forward
the refcounting operations to the corresponding android_native_base_t
functions.

This change makes SurfaceHolder.setType(GPU) obsolete (it's now ignored).
Added an API to android_native_window_t to allow extending the functionality without ever breaking binary compatibility. This is used to implement the new set_usage() API. This API needs to be called by software renderers because the default is to use usage flags suitable for h/w.
there was several issues:
- when a surface was made non-current, the last frame wasn't shown and the buffer could stay locked
- when a surface was made current the 2nd time, it would not dequeue a new buffer
now, queue/dequeue are done when the surface is made current.
for this to work, a new query() hook had to be added on android_native_window_t, it allows to retrieve some attributes of a window (currently only width and height).
