Enforce VPN control "permission" with an actual permission.

The current implementation uses a whitelist of package names. Use a
system|signature permission instead of rolling our own security and
add that permission to the existing set of whitelisted packages
(SystemUI and VpnDialogs).

In addition to being less of a security risk (using well-known methods
like Context.enforceCallingPermission rather than manually querying
PackageManager and checking UIDs for package names), this enables
other system-privileged apps to control VPN as needed per the below
bug.
