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.

Printers for a disappearing print serivce incorrectly removed.
The code that removes printers for a disappearing print serivice was
using printer infos instead printer ids and also wrong map methods.

Print API updated.
1. Removed the updatePrinters API on PrinterDiscoverySession.
Now re-adding a printer updates it.
2. Added getTrackedPrinters() API to allow a print service to
figure out which printers' state should be tracked by the
service.
3. Removed the APIs on PrintDocumentInfo that describe the
layout of the content as they are not needed. For example,
if the print attributes passed in layout require landscape
mode, the the app should just create a PDF page with the
wider side up and draw its content in portrait. The printer
will then rotate the page.

Print UI bug fixing and printer discovery refactoring.
1. Added support for selecting a printer from the all printers activity
that is not in the initial printer selection drop down. The user
initially sees a sub set of the printers in the drop down and the
last option is to see all printers in a separate activity. Some
of the printers in the all printers activity are not shown in the
initial drop down.
2. Refactored printer discovery by adding (private for now) printer
discovery app facing APIs. These APIs are needed to support multiple
printer selection activities (print dialog and all printers activities)
and also the settings for showing all printers for a service.
Now multiple apps can request observing for printers and there is
a centralized mediator that ensures the same printer discovery
session is used. The mediator dispatches printer discovery specific
requests to print services. It also aggregates discovered printers
and delivers them to the interested apps. The mediator minimizes
printer discovery session creation and starting and stopping discovery
by sharing the same discovery session and discovery window with
multiple apps. Lastly, the mediator takes care of print services
enabled during discovery by bringing them up to the current
discovery state (create discovery session and start discovery if
needed). The mediator also reports disappearing of the printers
of a service removed during discovery and notifies a newly
registered observers for the currnet printers if the observers are
added during an active printer discovery session.
3. Fixed bugs in the print UI and implemented some UX tweaks.

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.

Iteration of the print sub-system.
1. Added APIs for adding partially initialized PrintInfo objects
enabling light-weight lookps for print serivces that want to
populate the list of available printers without querying each
of them for its capabilities. This includes APIs for the system
to request from a print service to update certain printers.
2. Fixed a bug in PrinterId#equals().
3. Added equals and hasCode implementaion to PrinterInfo. Also
the defaul in PrinterInfo are now an array instead of a
SparseArray - cheaper.
4. Now PrintJobConfigActivity works with partially specified
printers. Specifically, if such a printer is selected the
activity is requesting from the print service to update
the printer. We are currently not handling the timeout case.
It also handles udpated pritners.
