Complete Sony Xperia Z3 Compact (aries) port

[mvines]

Basic support for the Sony Xperia Z3 Compact device has landed. We have nightly builds for this device, or you can build/flash it yourself with

$ cd bsp-gonk
$ ./sync aries
$ . build/envsetup.sh
$ make -j42
$ fastboot flash all

Of course an unlocked bootloader is required, see http://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/ for more.

The relevant parts of the tree are:

• Aries-specific settings: https://github.com/silklabs/silk/tree/master/bsp-gonk/board/aries
• Common Xperia patches: https://github.com/silklabs/silk/tree/master/bsp-gonk/board/android-6.0.1-xperia
• Common AOSP 6 patches: https://github.com/silklabs/silk/tree/master/bsp-gonk/board/android-6.0.1

The port is based on the AOSP M Xperia build decribed at http://developer.sonymobile.com/open-devices/aosp-build-instructions/how-to-build-aosp-marshmallow-for-unlocked-xperia-devices/

What works:

1. Device boots to the normal Silk splash screen
2. Buttons/power key
3. Audio playback (adb shell player /data/afile.mp4a)

What doesn't work yet:

• [x] Wifi (fails during association after using silk setupwifi to configure an access point)
• [ ] Volume control (eg, adb shell volume 0 or adb shell volume 100)
• [ ] time_genoff program fails (used to set the RTC clock upon NTP time). This is likely because timekeep is used by the Xperia devices instead of blobs to set the RTC.
• [x] Camera. The silk capture fails to tickle the camera HAL in just the right way to get it to start up on this device
• [ ] Bluetooth is untested.

Wifi/Camera are now basically working. Not quite sure what changed but \o/. The camera frames have a green bar at the bottom, but I believe this also happens on the unmodified Aries AOSP-M build as well.
