Replacing accessibility service permissions with capability attributes.
Accessibility services can perform special operations such as retrieve the screen content, enable explore by touch, etc. To ensure the user is aware that the service will perform special operations we were using permissions. However, the special operations cannot be performed unless the service is really enabled by the user and it is at this point that we want to notify the user about the service capabilities. This change adds capability attributes to the accessibility service's meta-data XML file. The service has to declare the capability and when it is enabled we show the user the capabilities in the warining dialog. bug:8633951 Change-Id: Id3442dc71dad018e606888afdc40834682fdb037
