SurfaceFlinger: handle high refresh rate deny list
Add visibility to SurfaceFlinger into the high refresh rate deny list
and let SurfaceFlinger handle it. Previously WM was setting the
preferredDisplayModeId on the denied app's window. The old way prevented
SurfaceFlinger to use the frame rate override feature as it didn't
know that a specific app is causing the refresh rate spec to be limited.
With this change, SurfaceFlinger will limit the display refresh rate based
on the high refresh rate deny list, and if possible, will use the frame
rate override feature to change the display rate to a multiple, allowing
other animations to be smooth while the denied app remains in the low
refresh rate.
