Move time setting code from SystemClock to AlarmManagerService
On devices using /dev/rtc instead of /dev/alarm, updating the
time-of-day clock and RTC are separate syscalls. Hence the clock and
RTC could be left in inconsistent states if two threads called
SystemClock.setCurrentTimeMillis() simultaneously.
By moving this code into AlarmManagerService, we can put a global lock
around AlarmManagerService.setTime() and prevent the race condition.
Note that access to SystemClock.setCurrentTimeMillis() is now gated by
android.permission.SET_TIME, where before it was gated by filesystem
permissions (i.e., could the process write to /dev/alarm or /dev/rtc).
