Sorry, I don't believe there is a way to do this.  (If there is, it would be
this attribute on the application tag.)  We strongly recommend that people
stick with the standard behavior of allowing the system to restart an
activity due to a configuration change, since:

(1) This takes care of a lot of things for you and you real.
(2) It is very unlikely you will be able to actually correctly handle all of
them yourself (such as a locale change), so you are going to need to behave
well anyway.
(3) This is really the same mechanism that is used to restore an application
when brought to the foreground after its process is killed, so if you aren't
correctly dealing with an activity restart then you are broken in this case
as well.
