Remove binder priority propagation workaround
recent changes to how cgroups are handled caused mediaserver to generate a lot of permission denied diagnostics. It highlighted code in the IMediaMetadataRetriever interface that wored around a binder / scheduling priority problem from 2009 ['this is a temporary workaround']. Further investigation showed that even before the newest patch, the workaround was ineffective, but wasn't logging the failures. This removes the 13+ year old temporary workaround that passed scheduling policies between client and service; we now depend on the binder to handle that correctly. This will also stop the verbose logcat messages that brought this to our attention. Bug: 276957640 Test: cts-tradefed CtsMediaMiscTestCases Change-Id: I992374350ce87f2751dd1367fc40c5622e9b8536
