Automatically grant URI permission as needed.
With this CL, the system automatically grants a temporary URI permission to the target application when the IME calls InputConnection#commitContent() with InputConnection#INPUT_CONTENT_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION. The temporary permission will be revoked by any of the following events: - InputContentInfo#releasePermission() is explicitly called by the target application. - The target application returned false in InputConnection#commitContent(). - All the InputContentInfo instances copied from the original one are GC-ed. If we do not do this and there is an application that forgot to call that method then there is no way for IME developers to prevent permission denial from happening in the application except for relaxing the default permission of the ContentProvider just because of such an application. Although application developers are still expected to explicitly call InputContentInfo#{request,release}Permission(), forgetting to call InputContentInfo#requestPermission() does not hurt the user anymore. With this CL, calling InputContentInfo#requestPermission() after calling InputContentInfo#releasePermission() is also allowed. Bug: 29892936 Change-Id: Id955435dd2e72549ee7134f46b3c6951581694ad
