With this change, init sets a property "init.start" to show the
CLOCK_BOOTTIME time at which init itself started, and for each service
an "init.svc.<name>.start" property to show the CLOCK_BOOTTIME time at
which that service was most recently started.
These times can be used by tools like bootstat to track boot time.
As part of this change, move init over to std::chrono. Also, rather than
make the command-line argument handling more complex, I've switched to
using an environment variable for communication between first- and
second-stage init, and added another environment variable to pass the
start time of the first stage through to the second stage.

Solve one more issue where privilege is required to open a file and
we do not want to grant such to the service. This is the service side
of the picture, android_get_control_file() in libcutils is the client.
The file's descriptor is placed into the environment as
"ANDROID_FILE_<path>". For socket and files where non-alpha and
non-numeric characters in the <name/path> are replaced with _. There
was an accompanying change in android_get_control_socket() to match
in commit 'libcutils: add android_get_control_socket() test'
Add a gTest unit test for this that tests create_file and
android_get_control_file().
Test: gTest init_tests --gtest_filter=util.create_file

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.

bootcharts currently only show root's processes, which isn't very
useful. To investigate and track boot duration issues, we need a way for
init to see all the pids. Add init to GID 3009 (aka AID_READPROC)
Ensure that init's children don't inherit this GID by always clearing
supplementary group IDs on fork.

Not-Tested: bootchart actually works. Speculative fix.
Services implementing HIDL HALs must be named the same as the HIDL
package, e.g. android.hardware.nfc@1.0. Allow init to accept names
containing '.' and '@'.
Also combined logic for legal property names and legal service names.

Test: Tested creating service nfc@1.0-service which creates property
'init.svc.nfc@1.0-service' with and without this change. This service
successfully started only with this change.

For each service ${service} described in a .rc file, init creates the
property init.svc.${service}. This implies that service-name lengths
are bound by the maximum size of a property. This patch accounts for
the "init.svc." prefix and the maximum property-name length when
validating a service name.
Test: pass
