Enforce the minTime parameter in LocationManager#requestLocationUpdates
There is a long history in Android, on both GED and non GED devices of GPS providers ignoring the minTime parameter making location updates every second. The problem is usually poor GPS drivers that claim to do scheduling but then do not. By making the minTime parameter strict (instead of a hint) we can add a CTS test to ensure that udpates to not occur too frequently. I believe this is the desired behavior from apps. If apps want to take advantage of more frequent updates when another application asks for those updates then it can use the passive provider. The CTS test for GPS has already been submitted (as part of CTS Verifier). Bug: 6424983 Change-Id: I163b9e44ea7ab71530b86fc2282614e0150e90f1
