When physical devices experience high memory pressure, `androidx.test.services` is at risk of being killed by the system's lowmemorykiller due to running as an unbound background process, causing shell command execution to fail. This commit raises androidx.test.services by establishing an active binding from the calling test process, thus inheriting its top-level foreground priority (`oom_score_adj = 0`). Shell binder connections are also cached across invocations to reduce unnecessary queries across processes. This change only effects ShellExecutor when used in the legacy non-localsocket mode.
