需求：驱动那边有一款屏幕特殊屏幕，不打开当前选项会闪屏

1.开发者选项的布局在 “apps/Settings/res/xml/development_settings.xml” ，当然也可以通过资源id去检索目录所在；

2.隐藏选项 disable_overlays

base/packages/SettingsLib/res/values-zh-rCN/strings.xml:306:    
<string name="disable_overlays_summary" msgid="3578941133710758592">"始终使用 GPU 进行屏幕合成"</string>


<!-- 
<SwitchPreference
            android:key="disable_overlays"
            android:title="@string/disable_overlays"
            android:summary="@string/disable_overlays_summary" />
-->

3.下面是 patch
