Ambient capabilities are inherited in a straightforward way across
execve(2):
"
If you are nonroot but you have a capability, you can add it to pA.
If you do so, your children get that capability in pA, pP, and pE.
For example, you can set pA = CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE, and your
children can automatically bind low-numbered ports.
"
This will allow us to get rid of the special meaning for AID_NET_ADMIN
and AID_NET_RAW, and if desired, to reduce the use of file capabilities
(which grant capabilities to any process that can execute the file). An
additional benefit of the latter is that a single .rc file can specify
all properties for a service, without having to rely on a separate file
for file capabilities.
Ambient capabilities are supported starting with kernel 4.3 and have
been backported to all Android common kernels back to 3.10.
I chose to not use Minijail here (though I'm still using libcap) for
two reasons:
1-The Minijail code is designed to work in situations where the process
is holding any set of capabilities, so it's more complex. The situation
when forking from init allows for simpler code.
2-The way Minijail is structured right now, we would not be able to
make the required SELinux calls between UID/GID dropping and other priv
dropping code. In the future, it will make sense to add some sort of
"hook" to Minijail so that it can be used in situations where we want
to do other operations between some of the privilege-dropping
operations carried out by Minijail.

This CL extracts code from Service::Start into four helper functions,
bringing Service::Start down to 134 lines vs 212 lines originally. This
makes the method a lot easier to follow. There is no change in behaviour.
Also, make error messages consistent (start with lowercase) and
format Service::Start to fit in 100 cols.

This CL allows enabling of multiple consoles. A service can be
mapped to a specific console by providing the optional argument,
IE "tty0", to "console" service attribute as follows:
service fbconsole /system/bin/sh
class core
console tty0
disabled
user shell
group shell log readproc
seclabel u:r:shell:s0

When ro.build.shutdown_timeout is set, init will send a SIGTERM signal to
all services on reboot. The normal shutdown process will continue once
all services have exited or after the shutdown timeout
(ro.build.shutdown_timeout).
If ro.build.shutdown_timeout is not set, we assume a 0s timeout.
Bug: 26216447
Test: manual: Ask to reboot. All services exit cleanly.

Create a Parser class that uses multiple SectionParser interfaces to
handle parsing the different sections of an init rc.
Create an ActionParser and ServiceParser that implement SectionParser
and parse the sections corresponding to Action and Service
classes.
Remove the legacy keyword structure and replace it with std::map's
that map keyword -> (minimum args, maximum args, function pointer) for
Commands and Service Options.
Create an ImportParser that implements SectionParser and handles the
import 'section'.
Clean up the unsafe memory handling of the Action class by using
std::unique_ptr.
