Clean up print subsystem
- Stop using deprecated APIs
- Fix all public and some internal javadoc
- Add @Decorations to public APIs
- Some minor cleanup, e.g. don't use variables with overlapping names in same scope
- remove unnecessary properties from manifest (they are set by the build
system)

App UI freezes when printing. API clean up.
1. The UI of a printing app was freezing a little when calling the print
method since the print manager service was waiting for it to bind to the
print spooler which generated the print job id (and the initial print
job info really). Now the print manager service is responsible for job
id generation and does not not wait for the print spooler to spin. Hence,
the app UI is not blocked at all. Note that the print manager initiates
the binding to the spooler and as soon as it completes the spooler shows
the print UI which is hosted in its process. It is not possible to show
the print UI before the system is bound to the spooler since during this
binding the system passes a callback to the spooler so the latter can
talk to the system.
2. Changed the print job id to be an opaque class allowing us to vary the
way we generate print job ids in the future.
3. The queued print job state was hidden but the print job returned by the
print method of the print manager is in that state. Now now hidden.
4. We were incorrecly removing print job infos if they are completed or
cancelled. Doing that is problematic since the print job returned by
the print method allows the app to query for the job info after the
job has been say completed. Hence, an app can initiate printing and
get a print job whose state is "created" and hold onto it until after
the job is completed, now if the app asks for the print job info it
will get an info in "created" state even though the job is "completed"
since the spooler was not retaining the completed jobs. Now the spooler
removes the PDF files for the completed and cancelled print jobs but
keeps around the infos (also persisting them to disc) so it can answer
questions about them. On first boot or switch to a user we purge the
persisted print jobs in completed/cancelled state since they
are obsolete - no app can have a handle to them.
5. Removed the print method that takes a file since we have a public
PrintDocumentAdapter implementation for printing files. Once can
instantiate a PrintFileDocumentAdapter and pass it to the print
method. This class also allows overriding of the finish method to
know when the data is spooled and deleted the file if desired, etc.
6. Replaced the wrong code to slice a large list of parcelables to
use ParceledListSlice class.

Print spooler security and some new print service facing APIs.
1. Updated the security mode of the print spooler. Now the spooler
is not signed with the system key, it is not a privileged app so if
it gets compromised (PDF rendering is a potential attack vector)
it cannot access dangerous permissions. Also only the system
can bind to the spooler.
2. Added APIs for asking a print service to start and stop tracking
a given printer. This is need for the case when the user selects
the printer and the print service should do a best effort to keep
the system updated for the current state of the printer.
3. Added APIs for putting a print job in a blocked state. A print
service would report the print job as blocked if for some reason
the printer cannot proceed, e.g. 99 pages are printed but there
is no paper for the last one. The user has to add more paper
and the print service can resume the job.
4. Changed the read/write APIs to use ParcelFileDescriptor instead
of FileDescriptor since the latter does not have a clean API for
detaching the wrapped Linux file descriptor when one wants to
push it to native.
5. Added API for getting the size of the printed document so the
print service can avoid handling big filed over cellular network
or ask the user if needed.
6. Now the print services that are preinstalled on the system image
are automatically enabled.

Refinement of the print service APIs.
1. Factored out the printer discovery APIs of a print service in a
dedicated session object that is created by the print service on
demand. This ensures that added/removed/updated printers from
one session do not interfere with another session.
2. Updated the app facing APIs to pass in a document info along
with a printed file. Also exposed the print file adapter so
apps that create a temporary file for printing can intercept
when it is read by the system so the file can be deleted.
3. Updated the print service documentation.

Refactoring of the print sub-system and API clean up.
1. Now a user state has ins own spooler since the spooler app is
running per user. The user state registers an observer for the state
of the spooler to get information needed to orchestrate unbinding
from print serivces that have no work and eventually unbinding from
the spooler when all no service has any work.
2. Abstracted a remote print service from the perspective of the system
in a class that is transparently managing binding and unbinding to
the remote instance.
3. Abstracted the remote print spooler to transparently manage binding
and unbinding to the remote instance when there is work and when
there is no work, respectively.
4. Cleaned up the print document adapter (ex-PrintAdapter) APIs to
enable implementing the all callbacks on a thread of choice. If
the document is really small, using the main thread makes sense.
Now if an app that does not need the UI state to layout the printed
content, it can schedule all the work for allocating resources, laying
out, writing, and releasing resources on a dedicated thread.
5. Added info class for the printed document that is now propagated
the the print services. A print service gets an instance of a
new document class that encapsulates the document info and a method
to access the document's data.
6. Added APIs for describing the type of a document to the new document
info class. This allows a print service to do smarts based on the
doc type. For now we have only photo and document types.
7. Renamed the systemReady method for system services that implement
it with different semantics to systemRunning. Such methods assume
the the service can run third-party code which is not the same as
systemReady.
8. Cleaned up the print job configuration activity.
9. Sigh... code clean up here and there. Factoring out classes to
improve readability.
