Retain loaders through stopped config changes
Framework edition Previously we would throw away any stopped LoaderManagers when we went to retain instances to pass along as nonConfigurationInstances during config changes or similar activity restarts. This causes loaders to do more work than they need to when a calling activity starts a new activity on top, a config change happens (e.g. screen rotation) and then the top activity is finished, restarting the caller in a new configuration. The loaders would go through onReset unnecessarily, potentially throwing away data to be reloaded again after the config change completes. Instead of throwing away stopped LoaderManagers in this case, restart them and retain them across the config change so they can resume where they left off.
