Fix IME flickering when swiping out to home

When switching tasks between different users (i.e. primary and
work-profile user), if the source task has shown IME, when going to
the target task, IMMS will first unbind the current input method of
the current user and hide the soft-keyboard and the window token
by HIDE_SWITCH_USER reason, and then re-bind the input method of
the target user when focused to the target task.

If the hide soft-keyboard somehow being delayed and comes after the
target task has been focused and be the next IME target, user will
see the window removal transition on top of this IME target window.
(i.e. launching Google chat apps with IME shown from work-profile
 and then swiping out to home screen)

Even if we disable window animation in Activity#onDestory in IME
client side, the next relayout can come before that, so window exit
transition still happens.

To fix this timing issue, add animateExit parameter in
WindowManagerInternal#removeToken for IMMS not to perform window exit
animation and to hide the window surface permanentaly, so we can
avoid the window surface becoming visible again unexpectedly during
relayout.
