2497a1524d improve [un]marshalling of non-binder objects
this change introduces a new class LightFlattenable<> which is
a protocol to flatten simple objects that don't require
binders or file descriptors; the benefit of this protocol is that
it doesn't require the objects to have a virtual table and give us
a consitant way of doing this.

we also introduce an implementation of this protocol for
POD structures, LightFlattenablePod<>.

Parcel has been update to handle this protocol automatically.

Sensor, Rect, Point and Region now use this new protocol.

a580e68cc3 remove a dependency of GraphicBuffer (libui) on Parcel (libbinder).
Add a Flattenable interface to libutils which can be used to flatten
an object into bytestream + filedescriptor stream.
Parcel is modified to handle Flattenable. And GraphicBuffer implements
Flattenable.

Except for the overlay classes libui is now independent of libbinder.
