Set android.display thread to top-app cpusets and schedtune group
android.display being in the foreground cpuset group is an issue. As
seen on M/S, during heavily CPU load it is not given core 3 even though
it might be free and causes jank. This patch adds the thread to the
top-app group to ensure it is placed on all cores during scheduling
decisions.
Doing this required a couple of changes:
- new API to set per-thread cpusets
- changes to DisplayManagerService to set the thread to top-app group
- changes to SystemServer to set the policy toward the end, as doing it
during start of the DisplayManagerService was in issue (issue being
SystemServer calls setSystemProcess.. -> setProcessGroup which overrides
the group settings for threads in the system server process, including
android.display)
Bug: 36631902
Test: Boot and make sure android.display thread is in the top-app group
