Push mapping of package name to appId to kernel.
The new sdcardfs kernel driver needs to know this mapping for deriving UID permissions, so push the data through /config when supported by the kernel. This also has the nice benefit of letting us push only the deltas of what actually changes, instead of re-parsing the entire "packages.list" file. The mappings for newly installed apps are pushed before the app is allowed to run, removing some latent race conditions. Also cleans up stale mappings when packages are uninstalled, and whenever the system server reboots. Bug: 19160983 Change-Id: Iace92efb69616c96b34c0d9d911e4b54e5fd8a67
