There are only three places where the log buffer lock is not already
held when the reader lock is taken:
1) In LogReader, when a new reader connects
2) In LogReader, when a misbehaving reader disconnects
3) LogReaderThread::ThreadFunction()
1) and 2) happen sufficiently rarely that there's no impact if they
additionally held a global lock.
3) is refactored in this CL. Previously, it would do the below in a loop
1) Lock the reader lock then wait on a condition variable
2) Unlock the reader lock
3) Lock the log buffer lock in LogBuffer::FlushTo()
4) In each iteration in the LogBuffer::FlushTo() loop
1) Lock then unlock the reader lock in FilterSecondPass()
2) Unlock the log buffer lock to send the message, then re-lock it
5) Unlock the log buffer lock when leaving LogBuffer::FlushTo()
If these locks are collapsed into a single lock, then this simplifies to:
1) Lock the single lock then wait on a condition variable
2) In each iteration in the LogBuffer::FlushTo() loop
1) Unlock the single lock to send the message, then re-lock it
Collapsing both these locks into a single lock simplifes the code and
removes the overhead of acquiring the second lock, in the majority of
use cases where the first lock is already held.
Secondly, this lock will be a plain std::mutex instead of a RwLock.
RwLock's are appropriate when there is a substantial imbalance between
readers and writers and high contention, neither are true for logd.

liblog exposed __android_logger_get_buffer_size() which queries log
size properties, but that should not be a generic library function.
Logd should be the only process that queries these properties and
other processes should query the actual used log sizes from logd via
the android_logger_get_log_*_size() functions.
Also, always use 1MB for log buffer tests, instead of just on host and
various other clean up related to improper types.
Test: log buffers are correctly sized

In order of severity:
1) Add a CHECK() that a pointer is not nullptr, where the analyzer
believes this is possible.
2) Add `final` appropriately to functions called from constructors.
3) Add missing cloexec flags.
4) Add missing `noexcept` and other subtle performance warnings

This logic isn't generic, so it should not be in the generic
LogReaderThread.
Moreover, it's currently broken in essentially every case except when
filtering by UID, because it runs as in the filter functions before
the actual filtering by pid/etc takes place. For example, when
filtering by pid, it's possible to get leading chatty messages. The
newly added test was failing previously but is fixed by this change.
It's fundamentally broken in the tail case. Take this example:
1: Normal message
2: Chatty message
3: Normal message
4: Normal message
If you read that log buffer with a tail value of 3, there are three
possible outcomes:
1) Messages #2-4, however this would include a leading chatty message,
which is not allowed.
2) Messages #3-4, however this is only 2, not 3 messages.
3) Messages #1-4, however this is 4, more than the 3 requested
messages.
This code chooses 2) as the correct solution, in this case, we don't
need to account for leading chatty messages when counting the total
logs in the buffer. A test is added for this case as well.

ChattyLogBuffer::FlushTo() needs an array of pid_t's to differentiate
between deduplication and spam removal chatty messages, but that won't
be useful to other log buffers, so it doesn't deserve its own entry in
the abstruct LogBuffer::FlushTo() function.
Other log buffers may need their own data stored for each reader, so
we create an interface that the reader itself owns and passes to the
log buffer. It uses a unique_ptr, such that the when the reader is
destroyed, so will this state.
FlushToState will additionally contain the start point, that it will
increment itself and the log mask, which LogBuffers can use to
efficiently keep track of the next elements that will be read during a
call to FlushTo().
Side benefit: this allows ChattyLogBufferTests to correctly report
'identical' instead of 'expired' lines the deduplication tests.
Side benefit #2: This updates LogReaderThread::start() more
aggressively, which should result in readers being disconnected less
often, particularly readers who read only a certain UID.

This was a typo; the enum corresponds to the result of the 'Filter'
function, not the 'FlushTo' function.
