/proc/tty/drivers is read by applications to figure out if they are
running in an emulated environment. Specifically, they look for the
string "goldfish" within that file.
Arguably this is not an Android API, and really shouldn't be exposed to
applications, but:
1) A largish number of applications break if they can't read this file;
2) The information here isn't particularly sensitive
While we could spend a bunch of time trying to get applications fixed,
there are bigger fish to fry. It's not worth the battle.
Test: "ls -laZ /proc/tty/drivers" is labeled properly.

Also move necessary priv_app permissions into MediaProvider domain and
remove MediaProvider specific permissions from priv_app.
The new MtpServer permissions fix the following denials:
avc: denied { write } for comm=6D747020666673206F70656E name="ep0" dev="functionfs" ino=12326 scontext=u:r:priv_app:s0:c512,c768 tcontext=u:object_r:functionfs:s0 tclass=file permissive=1
denial from setting property sys.usb.ffs.mtp.ready, context priv_app
Bug: 30976142
Test: Manual, verify permissions are allowed

After a series of recent commits, installd has fully migrated over
to Binder, and all socket-based communication has been removed.
Test: builds, boots, apps install fine, pre-OTA dexopt works

In order to support platform changes without simultaneous updates from
non-platform components, the platform and non-platform policies must be
split. In order to provide a guarantee that policy written for
non-platform objects continues to provide the same access, all types
exposed to non-platform policy are versioned by converting them and the
policy using them into attributes.
This change performs that split, the subsequent versioning and also
generates a mapping file to glue the different policy components
together.
Test: Device boots and runs.

The webview_zygote is a new unprivileged zygote and has its own sockets for
listening to fork requests. However the webview_zygote does not run as root
(though it does require certain capabilities) and only allows dyntransition to
the isolated_app domain.

Divide policy into public and private components. This is the first
step in splitting the policy creation for platform and non-platform
policies. The policy in the public directory will be exported for use
in non-platform policy creation. Backwards compatibility with it will
be achieved by converting the exported policy into attribute-based
policy when included as part of the non-platform policy and a mapping
file will be maintained to be included with the platform policy that
maps exported attributes of previous versions to the current platform
version.
Eventually we would like to create a clear interface between the
platform and non-platform device components so that the exported policy,
and the need for attributes is minimal. For now, almost all types and
avrules are left in public.
Test: Tested by building policy and running on device.
