Simplify FINISH_INPUT_NO_FALLBACK_CONNECTION handling

This is the 6th CL for Bug 26851566 [1][2][3][4][5].

In the CLs [3][5], the approach we took was to extend an existing IPC
method

  IInputMethodClient#setActive(boolean active, boolean fullscreen)

by adding one more parameter "reportToImeController".

However, it seems that such an approach made its handling code hard to
maintain, because the IPC method needed to behave in a completely
different manner depending on the newly introduced parameter.

To avoid such a confusion and to make subsequent refactoring easier,
this CL introduces a new IPC method

  IInputMethodClient#setInteractive(
          boolean interactive, boolean fullscreen)

to clarify what we are actually doing.

In most cases there must be no observable behavior change.  One
possible behavior change is when setInteractive() gets called when
IMM#mCurRootView.getView() is not available.  In the previous CL, we
fell back to previous behavior as if
FINISH_INPUT_NO_FALLBACK_CONNECTION was not defined.  However it looks
like such a fallback mechanism is not an intentional behavior.

The main use case is still verified with existing CTS tests [6][7].
