ConnectivityManager: Provide API's to include location sensitive info
Existing NetworkCallback users will get NetworkCapabilities with location sensitive data removed (except for ownerUid which will be added for existing apps for backwards compatibility). Apps have to opt-in to receive location sensitive data. Note: This was chosen because WifiInfo is the only TransportInfo tha has location sensitive info & that was added only in Android 12. If we choose to default to true, all existings apps retrieving NetworkCapabilities for wifi networks will be blamed for location access unnecessarily. Changes: i) Add a flag in NetworkCallback creation to retrieve NetworkCapabilities with location sensitive info in their callback. (More flags are being planned for NetworkCallback for throttling callback frequency, etc) ii) For NetworkCapabilities.getOwnerUid(), we will continue to send the data for apps targeting older SDK (since this is an existing field and the new flag defaults location sensitive data to off).
