Add lint database filtering tool

lint database file (api-versions.xml) is used for NewApi checks. These checks
were written thinking about app developers.

When used inside the platform codebase, quite often it produces false positives
which make relying on it cumbersome.

This CL removes APIs introduced by mainline modules from the lint database to
remove many such false positives. While some of them might be real issues, the
alternative would be not turning these checks on at all.
