Add Context.getNoBackupFilesDir()

This is an app-private filesystem space exactly like the one
reported by Context.getFilesDir(), with one exception:  files
placed here are never backed up by the full-backup infrastructure.
If an app attempts to back up any of its contents via the normal
API it's immediately ignored with a logged warning.

The restriction is also enforced on the restore side, because
apps using support libraries might wind up creating full backup
archives containing no_backup subdirs on pre-L devices (via
adb backup, Helium, &c.).  We check for this before passing the
restore data to the app, and drop it if we detect the situation
so that the app never sees the bits.
