Initial commit of InputManager and keyboard layout API.
Added a new InputManager service for interacting with input devices and configuring them. This will be the focus of an upcoming refactoring. Added an API for registering keyboard layouts with the system based on the use of a broadcast receiver. Applications can register their own keyboard layouts simply by declaring a broadcast receiver in their manifests. Added the skeleton of a package that will ultimately contain the keyboard layouts and other input device related resources that are part of the base system. Bug: 6110399 Change-Id: Ie01b0ef4adbd5198f6f012e73964bdef3c51805c
