Frameworks: apple can do...we can do as well

incredible apple engineers speeded up the overall UI and reduced per default slightly
the animation scales. Well we do as well and reduce it from 1 to 0.75...smooth, looks well
and does not break anything

BatteryService: fix FC on boot until battery stat is present

updateLightsLocked() can be called from CM's added SettingsObserver
when battery stat is not present, causing an FC and a loop until
battery stat is present.

MiniThumbFile: Fix image/bitmap retrieval

Change I66005dd69b0a5c8f4353bd7a8225d163a654fd2d changed the insertion
and creation indexing mechanism, but the retrieval method was still
using the old sparse one. Fixit

Fixes android.provider.cts.MediaStore_Images_MediaTest#testInsertImageWithBitmap,
android.provider.cts.MediaStore_Images_MediaTest#testInsertImageWithImagePath,
android.provider.cts.MediaStore_Images_ThumbnailsTest#testQueryExternalMiniThumbnails,
and android.provider.cts.MediaStore_Video_ThumbnailsTest#testGetThumbnail

Rework thumbnail handling

Since ids of media file are usually not continuous, the original file of thumbnail are
sparse. When there are big numbers files on ex\
ternal storage, the size of this file will be horrible.
Ex, when the id is 20000, then the .thumbnails/.thumbdata3-xx file will be 50000*10k = 488.28M.
Can refer http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12396715/android-huge-thumbdata4-file-in-dcim-folder
Because after 4.0, MediaProvider will scan any files, this will be a big problem. So I modify MiniThumbFile.java to avoid this.
According to the id, we now produce an index file. In this index file, one id will use BYTES_PER_MINTHUMB_INDEX(8) bytes in offset (i\
d+1)*BYTES_PER_MINTHUMB_INDEX. The data of these 8 bytes is the index of thumbnail file. The first BYTES_PER_MINTHUMB_INDEX bytes kee\
p next available index. And when you need insert a thumbnail, the index increase by 1. In this way, the block data in thumbnail file \
will be continuous. And thus unnecessary zero paddings will not be saved.

Make ImageView drawable update more efficient in some cases.

When updating the view's drawable via setImageResource or setImageURI,
make sure to skip the layout pass if the old and new drawable have equal
sizes. This follows what is already done for setDrawable().

Framework: Fix GSM signal strength

Certain OEM gsm ril libs send back a bogus value for LTE signal
that causes SignalStrength.java to default to LTE and report
incorrect signal values.
Use prop value ro.telephony.ril.v3=signalstrength to get proper
GSM signal reading on certain devices.
