Allow a new bionic to work with an old init property area by supporting
the old format.

d329697 is too complicated. Change the multiple property pages back to
a single 128K property area that's mapped in entirely at initialization
(the memory will not get allocated until the pages are touched).
d329697 has other changes useful for testing (moving property area
initialization inside bionic and adding __system_property_set_filename)
so undo the change manually rather than with git revert.

See the comments for an explanation of how properties are stored.
The trie structure is designed to scale better than the previous
array-based implementation. Searching an array with n properties
required average O(n) string compares of the entire key; searching the
trie requires average O(log n) string compares of each token (substrings
between '.' characters).

The property area is initially one 4K region, automatically expanding as
needed up to 64 regions.
To avoid duplicating code, __system_property_area_init() now allocates
and initializes the first region (previously it was allocated in init's
init_property_area() and initialized in bionic). For testing purposes,
__system_property_set_filename() may be used to override the file used
to map in regions.

Move the implementation of writing to the system property area
from init to bionic, next to the reader implementation. This
will allow full property testing to be added to bionic tests.
Add new accessor and waiting functions to hide the implementation
from watchprops and various bionic users.
Also hide some of the implementation details of the property area
from init by moving them into _system_properties.h, and other details
from everybody by moving them into system_properties.h.

Currently, system properties are passed via the environment
variable ANDROID_PROPERTY_WORKSPACE and a file descriptor passed
from parent to child. This is insecure for setuid executables,
as the environment variable can be changed by the caller.
Modify system property handling so that we get the properties
from a root owned properties file, rather than using an
environment variable. Fall back to the environment variable
if the file doesn't exist.

This property file is used for properties which are set at device
provisioning time or in the factory. They are never touched by
a software update or factory data reset and typically contain
data specific to the particular unit.
