This makes the Provider-side of the DownloadManager framework honor
the per-UID cleartext network traffic policy. The policy is enforced
in the Provider rather than in its client (DownloadManager) because
download URLs could get redirected between HTTPS and HTTP and only
the Provider currently has visibility into and control over this.

Whether cleartext network traffic is permitted is a per-package
policy. However, the DownloadProvider can only access the UID of the
requesting application. Multiple packages can run under the same UID.
In that scenario, cleartext traffic is permited for the UID if
cleartext traffic is permitted for any of the packages running under
the UID. This could be improved by making the DownloadManager provide
the package name in addition to the UID.
