Enforce a timeout for Content Providers to be published.
ActivityManagerService: In the case where we are launching an application on behalf of a Content Provider request, enforce a timeout inbetween the application attaching and the content providers being published. Consider that a defective content provider may block in ContentProvider::onCreate indefinitely: in such a case the PROC_START_TIMEOUT has already been removed as the activity manager must have called bindApplication. In these cases, there will be nothing to wake threads blocking on the (non timed) wait for provider to be published at the end of ActivityManagerService::getContentProviderImpl. This can cause binder threads to block 1 by 1 until eventually AMS runs out and becomes unresponsive.
