Yank all the code to install OTA packages out of the recovery binary
itself. Now packages are installed by a binary included in the
package (run as a child of recovery), so we can make improvements in
the installation process without waiting for a new release to use
them.
To do a firmware-install-on-reboot, the update binary tells recovery
what file to install before rebooting. Let this file be specified as
"PACKAGE:<foo>" to indicate taking the file out of the OTA package,
avoiding an extra copy to /tmp. Bump the API version number to
reflect this change.

* commit '9931f7f3c1288171319e9ff7d053ebaad07db720':
edify extensions for OTA package installation, part 1
Adds the following edify functions:
mount unmount format show_progress delete delete_recursive
package_extract symlink set_perm set_perm_recursive
This set is enough to extract and install the system part of a (full)
OTA package.
Adds the updater binary that extracts an edify script from the OTA
package and then executes it. Minor changes to the edify core (adds a
sleep() builtin for debugging, adds "." to the set of characters that
can appear in an unquoted string).
Take some device-specific details of the recovery UI (eg, what keys to
press to bring up the interface and perform actions, exact text of the
menu, etc.) and split them out into separate C functions. Arrange to
take implementations of those functions from the appropriate vendor
directory at build time. Provide a default implementation in case no
vendor-specific one is available.
them from an external file in the recovery image. Use the
test-keys for all builds.
