     *     (and it is recommended) to fallback to MS_BASED if MS_ASSISTED is passed in, and MS_BASED
     *     is supported.
     * @param recurrence GNSS position recurrence value, either periodic or single.
     * @param minIntervalMs Represents the time between fixes in milliseconds.
     * @param preferredAccuracyMeters Represents the requested fix accuracy in meters.
     * @param preferredTimeMs Represents the requested time to first fix in milliseconds.
     * @param lowPowerMode When true, and IGnss.hal is the only client to the GNSS hardware, the
     *     GNSS hardware must make strong tradeoffs to substantially restrict power use.
     *     Specifically, in the case of a several second long minIntervalMs, the GNSS hardware must
     *     not, on average, run power hungry operations like RF and signal searches for more than
     *     one second per interval, and must make exactly one call to gnssSvStatusCb(), and either
     *     zero or one call to GnssLocationCb() at each interval. When false, HAL must operate in
     *     the nominal mode (similar to V1.0 where this flag wasn't present) and is expected to make
     *     power and performance tradoffs such as duty-cycling when signal conditions are good and
     *     more active searches to reacquire GNSS signals when no signals are present.
     *     When there are additional clients using the GNSS hardware other than IGnss.hal, the GNSS
     *     hardware may operate in a higher power mode, on behalf of those clients.
