Lock down IInputMethodManger.{add,remove}Client()
User mode processes are mistakenly allowed to call IInputMethodManger.{add,remove}Client(), which may allow malicious apps to register fake IInputMethodClient binder endpoints to InputMethodManagerService (IMMS). Luckily IMMS also checks whether the client process has a focused window or not by calling IWindowManager.inputMethodClientHasFocus() before doing some critical operations such as establishing a new InputConnection between the client app and the current IME. With this CL, IInputMethodManger.{add,remove}Client() start correctly checking the caller process ID so that only the system process can use those internal callbacks.
