Add support for module specified DeviceConfig namespace allowlists
Android 16 restricts the DeviceConfig namespaces / flags that can be written by the shell user to those that have been allowlisted. However, mainline modules can introduce new namespaces that are intended to be modified by end users through adb shell; since the platform may not be aware of these new namespaces, and the allowlisted namespaces in the ConfigInfrastructure may not update at the same time as the declaring APEX, the user will not be able to modify the flags under the new namespaces. This commit adds support to query for the etc/writable_namespaces file under the APEX directory; any entries in this file will be added to the DeviceConfig namespace allowlist. Bug: 364083026 Flag: android.security.protect_device_config_flags Test: atest DeviceConfigApiTests Test: Manually installed APEX with writable_namespaces file and verified namespaces in this file could be modified by adb Change-Id: I62a0c2a080c7860ee3dcf0885d20ffca05f5959e
