Pass the IGraphicBufferAlloc to SurfaceTextureClient.

This change passes a reference to the IGraphicBufferAlloc binder object
to SurfaceTextureClient objects.  When STC objects are created they
query their associated ISurfaceTexture object for the
IGraphicBufferAlloc that the SurfaceTexture uses to allocate buffers.
Having the SurfaceTextureClient hold this reference prevents the
GraphicBufferAlloc in SurfaceFlinger from freeing the allocated buffers
before the SurfaceTextureClient is done with them.
