While troubleshooting memory pressure related issues it's hard to get a
good view of the memory state when lmkd kill happens. Logging relevant
information from /proc/meminfo file that was used to make a kill decision
is very helpful for further analysis. To do this efficiently we are using
Android Logger event library functions and log the data used for kill
decision after the kill signal was issued.

When the swap space is full, a pressure event is unlikely to resolve by
itself. In this case, do not downgrade or ignore the events.
Bug: 112056451
Test: Fill up swap on a 1GB device and check critical vmpressure events
are not downgraded.

Setting memory.soft_limit_in_bytes on high-end devices with large memory
reserves affects performance of memory-hungry applications that have
large workingsets and keep thrashing because of the memory limits imposed.
Limit the usage of memory.soft_limit_in_bytes to low-memory devices only.
Add debug messages for future troubleshooting to capture cases when
vmpressure events are being ignored.

Logs that provide information about memory conditions during a process
kill event contain useful information and do not affect device
performance because these events are rare. Enabling them even when
ro.config.debug flag is not set will help in understanding low memory
conditions.

Add ability to switch to the algorithm used by lowmemorykiller driver
for determining when to kill. It uses minfree levels to decide at which
levels of free memory and file cache to kill a process. oom_adj_score
is also determined by comparing current memory resources against minfree
levels.
ro.lmk.use_minfree_levels property is introduces for switching into this
mode. By default it is disabled.

(cherry picked from commit d273b6630d)
Current mechanism of getting system memory state by using sysinfo()
is not enough because it does not provide information about file cache
size which is needed to correctly assess memory state. Switch to using
