When the NOTICE file for a module changed, the new NOTICE was being
concatenated onto the end of the old one in non-clean builds, taking up
more and more space and presumably duplicating most of the content. Only
one set of rules for a given file can exist in make, so there cannot be
a case where more than one $(notice_file) was intentionally being
concatenated together as this would be an error.

To pick up a NOTICE file in LOCAL_PATH and attach it to
/system/lib/libfoo.so, use the following syntax:
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE_CLASS := NOTICE_FILES
LOCAL_INSTALLED_MODULE := $(PRODUCT_OUT)/system/lib/libfoo.so
include $(BUILD_NOTICE_FILE)

The Chromium makefile generator used to use module class NONE for the
meta-targets in the gyp files; this was changed to GYP in order to make
it more obvious where they come from in the build. Update the build
system's handling of NOTICE files to reflect this change.

Targets of type NONE are used extensively in Android makefiles which have been
auto-generated from gyp build files. The gyp generator uses such targets to
represent gyp targets which don't produce an output file. Typically, many such
targets exist in a single Android makefile.
We use a generated Android makefile for Chromium. This project has a NOTICE
file, intended to be installed with a SHARED_LIBRARY target. However, the build
fails when processing the targets of type NONE, as it does not know where
to install the NOTICE file.
This change causes the NOTICE to be ignored in this case, rather than failing
the build.

The GNU Make wildcard function can be used to look for a specific file and
is _much_ faster than invoking the find command through $(shell ...).
Since notice_files.mk is included by base_rules.mk for each and every module
in the build tree, this represents a considerable speed-up. For example, when
building the full-eng product from the AOSP tree, the no-op "make" goes from
21 seconds to 16 seconds with this patch applied.

Use a different name for prebuilt libraries based on their LOCAL_MODULE --
they were all colliding using the same name, javalib.jar. These names
are synthetic, since the libraries don't actually exist on the device
as such.
