Set metadata retriever thread group to the caller's group.
This patch modifies the native binder interface to the metadata retriever to pass the caller's thread group across the binder interface. On the server side, the thread scheduler group is set to the caller's scheduler group temporarily and restored after the request has completed. This patch also reverts a previous patch where the priority of the thread was forced to a low priority foreground thread. This should give apps more control over the priority of their metadata retrieval, particularly allow background process to run without hogging the CPU.
