Fix content capture session id collision bug
* The content capture session id should be globally unique * Before this change, the id is genrated from a static random number generator created with new Random(). It appears that it all has the same seed value, so the sequence it generates is identical across processes * Ideally the session id should be generated from a center place to ensure uniqueness (e.g. system server), or be a UUID which is more unlikely to conflict. We will explore that as a longer term solution in S * For now the less invasive solution is to use SecureRandom, which produces non-deterministic output * Other approaches tried: 1) new Random(android.os.Process.myPid()). This doesn't work as the pid value is all the same at static loading time 2) offset the generated number by pid. This will work but the ids are not so random 3) make Random a non-static variable. This will work but it creates a new object for every class Test: manual Bug: 158714891 Change-Id: I158f45680a961b32f3b01dc4eabb45e7215cdeec
