Images (like boot and recovery) consist of large sections of gzipped
data interspersed with other data. To do effective binary patching of
these files, we need to apply patches to the gzipped parts in
'uncompressed space', that is, we decompress, apply a patch, then
recompress to obtain the desired output.
This change defines a new format with these patches, which is
basically a description of how the source and target files are to be
divided up into chunks and a bsdiff patch for each chunk. We add a
new host executable, "imgdiff", for generating these patches from
source and target images, and add support in applypatch for
recognizing this format and applying it on the device.
This is currently a copy & paste of the armv5te parameters. I don't
know if there's a better way to encode this, or to what extent we will
need to specialize it vs. armv5te in a future build (e.g. to enable fp
instruction use in code gen).
Currently the only effect is to select the VFP-enabled mterp sources in
Dalvik.

core: Add support for static libraries to include other whole static libs.
Currently, if LOCAL_WHOLE_STATIC_LIBRARIES is specified, its values is
ignored. This patch addresses this limitation and works as follows:
For every whole lib specified, it extracts the archive into a sub-directory
under the target lib's intermediate, and then seeds the initial target
archive with all the members.

use minigzip instead of system gzip in the build
Use zlib's minigzip utility, built as part of our source tree, instead of
whatever installation of GNU gzip happens to be on the user's machine.
Using zlib's deflater, which is nicely available as a library (unlike
GNU gzip's deflater) will ultimately let us do binary patches to the
boot and recovery images.

improve password entry for signing keys
Modified the image and index URLs to point to guide/index.html now
Allow the user to set ANDROID_PW_FILE to the name of a file for
storing password keys. When the tools need additional passwords, they
will rewrite this file and invoke the user's editor for the new
passwords to be added. This allows passwords to be reused across
invocations of the signing tools, without making the user reenter them
every time.
Paranoid users can use a file stored in a ramdisk, or not use this
feature at all (the code will prompt for passwords in the ordinary way
when ANDROID_PW_FILE is not set).

make sure package keys are consistent with shared users
All APKs that want to share a given user id must be signed with the
same key. Look inside each APK for what (if any) shared user id it
requests, and error out if any with the same shared user are being
signed with different keys.
