Consolidate start new input scenerios
As CL[1] we introduced WINDOW_FOCUS_GAIN_REPORT_WITH_SAME_EDITOR start input reason to ignore start new input when the focused view is same as current served view and the input connection remains the same for prevent additonal onStartInput / onFinishInput callback to InputMethodService. The main idea in the CL is good but how to judge whether the input connection remains the same is not accurate. CL[1] only checking if IMM#mServedInputConnectionWrapper self and its input connection instance is stil exists, that breaks the following cases to start new input: Case 1: - When device screen off / on to go back to focused app, this case will fit WINDOW_FOCUS_GAIN_REPORT_WITH_SAME_EDITOR use case, so IMM#mServedInputConnectionWrapper won't be deactivate and clear, this makes wrong when user taps IME picker dialog to switch IME, will hit again WINDOW_FOCUS_GAIN_REPORT_WITH_SAME_EDITOR and never start new input for new IME. Actually, in InputMethodManager has an ad-hoc check mRestartOnNextWindowFocus to start new input when device screen off / on case and switching IME, we should not ignore start input since that will conflict with the above case. Case 2: - As served view is now tracked by ImeFocusController which is per-window based instance from the IME focus handling refectoring CL[2], but InputMethodManager instance is still per-display based, so IMM#mCurrentTextBoxAttribute might be changed when the same app clinet has multiple IME focusable window focus changed, because focusing to the next IME focusable window will start new input connection and changes IMM#mCurrentTextBoxAttribute, so when focusing back to the original window, the served view in the original window's ImeFocusController will same as focused view, in that case if we didn't check if IMM#mCurrentTextBoxAttribute is really aligned with the given focused view, will mis-judge start new input timing and caused user can't type because the input connection state is obsoleted. Those cases can be addessed by using new introduced method IMM#isSameEditorAndAcceptingText, if the focused view is not aligned with same editor or the editor is inactive, we should start new input for Case 2, that also can fix Case 1 that we previously ignored starting new input when switching IME. Beside, we also found CL[3] leverages InputMethodManager#mRestartOnNextWindowFocus to start new input when window focus changed, since originally this ad-hoc check is only used to re-start input for Case 1. As we re-visited the necessary start new input scenerio is only when: - Device screen off -> on - Switching IME - the input connection obsoleted (this also includes when window focus changed) As the result, we can remove all unnecessary logics in IMMS instroduced by CL[1] and remove unnecessary InputMethodManager#mRestartOnNextWindowFocus from CL[3], and preserve the behavior is almost same as Q.

Test: manual for case 2 0) Sample app with 2 activites, each activity the layout has EditText 1) Launch activity A, focus EditText 2) Launch activity B and focus EditText 3) Press back key to back to activity A 4) Verify if typing with keyboard is workable.
