Improve view cookie handling

The layout editor is passed a ViewInfo hierarchy by the layout
library. For older versions of the layout library, it can be handed
hierarchies where the view cookies (which point back to XML model
objects corresponding to the rendered views) that are missing or
ambiguous. For that reason, it has various algorithms to try to piece
things back together, and for example handle <merge> scenarios as best
it can.

This isn't necessary with layout lib version 5 and higher, since as of
version 5 these scenarios are handled on the layout lib side and the
layout editor is passed back special cookies like the MergeCookie to
properly handle the various scenarios.

This fix makes the layout editor look up the layoutlib version, and if
dealing with version 5 or higher, it takes a simpler path to build up
the hierarchy.

This is also necessary to deal with the latest version of layoutlib
which passes a new type of view cookie which the older algorithm
couldn't handle.
