Optimize latency when unlocking phone
Latency when unlocking the phone regressed a bit for two reasons: - For lockscreen -> app we now have to create a full starting window containing the snapshot, while previously this was just showing a surface. - For lockscreen -> home, we can't use the saved surface anymore because currently we don't support snapshotting translucent activities. However, in the long term, we want home screen to be more involved into transitions anyways, so we'll have to wait for the first frame draw anyways. However, crystal ball trainee developer Jorim added some artificial latency in this transition 3 years ago, because he knew that it is going to be an issue at some point so we have some headroom to improve! Genius! On a more serious note, it was because he didn't understand how to read systraces with binders involved (to be fair, there was also no binder tracing). Now, we can completely fix the introduces latencies above by removing this latency of 100ms, and we are 30-70ms better than before! However, this requires a lot of discipline in SystemUI. Currently, the callback to dismiss Keyguard takes around 30ms. By moving all non-essential binder calls of the main thread or to the next frame, we bring this down to 5ms, such that window animation and Keyguard animation starts about at the same time. Test: Take systrace, unlock phone...profit! Fixes: 38294347 Change-Id: I481fe4ecf358ed09f7142dd9e7ecd290b53c500c Merged-In: I3ea672bc2eca47221bc6c9f3d7c56b6899df207d
