Avoid IME restart for configChanges
Handle onConfigurationChanged() in order to prevent restarting InputMethodService everytime. We introduce a new API attribute "configChanges" in InputMethod(attrs.xml) which when declared by IME, will be responsible for handling mentioned configuration changes. This CL re-introduces [1] with fix: Use new Configuration instance for IMS#mLastKnownConfig [1] Iff88b768c6b06cf5cf1fe9e97ee97f8f78e6f0bd Bug: 167948419 Test: atest InputMethodServiceTest Manually: 1. Patch Ie91e7a8e06b80864ef9409031e8543858552d70d to use dual display area. 2. Open applications with editors on both display areas. 3. Attach a debug point for IMS#onConfigurationChanged(). 4. Make sure IMS#resetStateForNewConfiguration() is not called when IME moves between these two identical DisplayAreas Change-Id: Ib94fddadb0dae648cf73a4c1642e51edebd19f50
