cherrypick from klp-docs docs: Corrected doc for getLaunchIntentForPackage(). Change-Id: I2eab0956eaedac71289e19a3618a3553908f8c38
Doc had inaccurately said that getLaunchIntentForPackage() throws an exception if the package name is not recognized; in fact, it returns null. Also cleaned up some style issues for that Javadoc item. Doc is staged to: http://asolovay.mtv:9655/reference/android/content/pm/PackageManager.html#getLaunchIntentForPackage(java.lang.String) Bug: 15022655 Original SHA1: I2eab0956eaedac71289e19a3618a3553908f8c38 Change-Id: Ief8dfaac248ba03779c6f13237aff9b26d362fd9
