Enable support for SMS national language shift tables.

Add support for encoding and decoding SMS 7 bit user data using the
national language shift tables defined in 3GPP TS 23.038 (GSM/UMTS only),
including the new tables added in Release 9 for Indic languages.

Decoding is always supported, but encoding is only enabled for the
specific language tables added to the new integer array resources
"config_sms_enabled_single_shift_tables" and
"config_sms_enabled_locking_shift_tables" defined in
frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/config.xml. The default empty arrays
should be overridden in an OEM overlay for the specific nationalities where
SMS national language shift table encoding is allowed/mandated (e.g. Turkey).
GsmAlphabet.countGsmSeptets() will try to find the most efficient encoding
among all combinations of enabled locking shift and single shift tables.
If no 7 bit encoding is possible, 16 bit UCS-2 encoding will be used.

This change also fixes a bug in the decoder: when an escape septet
is followed by a septet with no entry in the extension (single shift)
table, TS 23.038 Table 6.2.1.1 states that the MS shall display
the character in the main GSM 7 bit default alphabet table, or the
active national language locking shift table. Previously, we were
decoding this sequence as a space character. Two consecutive escape
septets will continue to decode as a space character, according to
Note 1 of table 6.2.1.1.
