Fix IMM#showInputMethodAndSubtypeEnabler().
At least on AOSP InputMethodManager#showInputMethodAndSubtypeEnabler()
has been broken since its beginning. As of Android M, there are three
separate issues:
1. Type mismatch in message dispatching layer.
2. It does not correctly reject API calls from clients that do not
have IME focus.
3. Context#startActivityAsUser(intent, null, UserHandle.CURRENT) ends
up with java.lang.SecurityException:
Permission Denial: startActivity asks to run as user -2 but is
calling from user 0; this requires
android.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS_FULL.
Given that we have a good alternative to achieve the same result, it
would make sense to deprecate that method and encourage developers to
use Intent-based solution instead.
Before doing that, this CL fixes the issues just for the record.
