Disable preinstalled carrier apps earlier in boot.
Preinstalled carrier apps start in state DEFAULT (== ENABLED); the telephony stack marks them as DISABLED_UNTIL_USED during initialization, and eventually ENABLED once a SIM for that carrier is inserted. However, this can cause a race as telephony initialization may happen after the carrier app is started, while it is still in the DEFAULT state. In this case, the app is disabled, and though PackageManager will subsequently kill it, this may lead to a race as the app will briefly remain running while disabled. In this state, crashes are likely to occur in the app. So, make sure we perform the first disable as soon as PackageManager is ready. This ensures the app is not started until it has been explicitly enabled. Bug: 27821069 Change-Id: I771d7dde7880fd98b1df3d011be44164abf402f4
