Solve one more issue where privilege is required to open a file and
we do not want to grant such to the service. This is the client side
of the picture, init is the server. The file's descriptor was placed
into the environment as "ANDROID_FILE_<path>" where non-alpha and
non-numeric characters in the <path> are replaced with _ and this
function picks the file descriptor up.
Added definition ANDROID_FILE_ENV_PREFIX ("ANDROID_FILE_") and
android_get_control_file() prototype in a new include <cutils/files.h>
android_get_control_file() checks if the resulting file descriptor is
valid, open and matches the name reference, which on purpose will fail
if a symbolic link is in the path rather than using a fully qualified
path. Add gTest unit test for both.
Test: gTest libcutils_test --gtest_filter=FileTest.android_get_control_file
