Support hidden API whitelist generated by class2greylist

Libcore has support for annotating a virtual method which is known
to change its return type in a future release. This annotation is
recognized by the dexer and a future-proof bridge method is created.
This patch integrates changes in class2greylist to support this
annotation into the build system and generation of hidden API lists.

Calling class2greylist on each boot classpath module now produces two
text files instead of one: signatures for greylisting and now also
whitelisting. They are passed on to the hidden API list generating rules
in frameworks/base.

Android Make Build System

This is the Makefile-based portion of the Android Build System.

For documentation on how to run a build, see Usage.txt

For a list of behavioral changes useful for Android.mk writers see Changes.md

For an outdated reference on Android.mk files, see build-system.html. Our Android.mk files look similar, but are entirely different from the Android.mk files used by the NDK build system. When searching for documentation elsewhere, ensure that it is for the platform build system -- most are not.

This Makefile-based system is in the process of being replaced with Soong, a new build system written in Go. During the transition, all of these makefiles are read by Kati, and generate a ninja file instead of being executed directly. That's combined with a ninja file read by Soong so that the build graph of the two systems can be combined and run as one.
