My understanding is that animation controllers can be applied to
layouts and views, but not whole activities.

You might be able to apply a layout animation on the root layout, and
perform a transition that appears to take up the whole screen. This
could be coupled with a screen shot of the next activity to give the
illusion that the transition is taking you to it. However, the effect
you would get is a diagonal transition, followed by the built-in
system transition (the horizontal swipe effect), which would finally
land you at the next activity.

So I think the transitions are the responsibility of the base system,
and the user-level applications have no control over them. The best
you could to is imitate them with an animation, and tell the user to
turn off the system one (Settings -> Sound & Display -> Animation);
which is not ideal.
