Sever the link to inputflinger when system_server crashes
When system_server and inputflinger goes down, we want to clear the
reference to the inputflinger service. This prevent SF making any
invalid binder calls to input. Instead the input commands will be queued up
and sent when system_server recovers via SurfaceFlinger::bootFinished
signal.
Test: adb shell su root kill `pid system_server` & check we have a focused window when the server recovers
