When Wi-fi connects at L2 layer, the beacons reach and the device
can maintain a connection to the access point, but the application
connectivity can be flaky (due to bigger packet size exchange).
We now use Watchdog to monitor the quality of the last hop on
Wi-Fi using signal strength and ARP connectivity as indicators
to decide if the link is good enough to switch to Wi-Fi as the uplink.
ARP pings are useful for link validation but can still get through
when the application traffic fails to go through and thus not best indicator
real packet loss since they are tiny packets (28 bytes) and have
much low chance of packet corruption than the regular data
packets.
Signal strength and ARP used together ends up working well in tests.
The goal is to switch to Wi-Fi after validating ARP transfer
and RSSI and then switching out of Wi-Fi when we hit a low
signal strength threshold and waiting until the signal strength
improves and validating ARP transfer.

Backported from master, including a bug fix and a cdma enhancement.
Even if other people are sharing the connection (ie, carrier wants
default and tethered traffic on the same APN) stop using a carrier-
described APN when the tethering stops.

When changing global restrict background status, send connectivity
change broadcast, since it radically changes DISCONNECTED/BLOCKED
status system-wide.
Also reduce verbose stats logging.

When ConnectivityService#startUsingNetworkFeature is called and the
special network is not available output some additional information.

Split existing network stats into two separate classes: a recorder
which generates historical data based on periodic counter snapshots,
and a collection of historical data with persistance logic.
Recorder keeps a pending history in memory until outstanding data
crosses a specific threshold. Persisting is handled through a given
FileRotator. This pattern significantly reduces disk churn and
memory overhead. Separate UID data from UID tag data, enabling a
shorter rotation cycle. Migrate existing stats into new structure.
Remove "xt" stats until iptables hooks are ready. Avoid consuming
Entry values when recording into NetworkStatsHistory. Assign
operation counts to default route interface.
Introduce "Rewriter" interface in FileRotator with methods to enable
rewriteAll(). Introduce IndentingPrintWriter to handle indenting in
dump() methods.

This separates the definition of "metered network" and "network with
limit." For now, all mobile networks are considered metered.
