Fix a race to detemine IME switcher visibilityde
When the current user is switching to a user who requires password to
unlock, there is a chance that InputMethodManagerService has not
completed InputMethodManagerService#onSwitchUser() when the keyguard is
calling InputMethodManager#getEnabledInputMethodList() to detemine
whether the IME switcher icon should be shown or not. If this occurs,
and if the previous user enables only one IME but the new user enables
multiple IMEs, it's possible that the IME switcher icon is not shown
when it should be. Although the user is still able to work around this
by switch back to the previous user then the current user again until
the icon shows up, or can rely on a way to switch to next
IME (e.g. globe key) if it's available, the lack of the IME switcher
is still concerning since it can prevent the user from unlocking the
device.
As a quick workaround for this situation, this CL introduces a delayed
task to re-evaluate if we need to show the IME switcher icon on the
keyguard or not (currently the delay is set to 500msec) until this race
condition is fundamentally fixed.
