Policy.getInstance and Configuration.getInstance are specified to throw IllegalArgumentException if the parameter input is invalid.

In these three cases, Policy and Configuration.getInstance should catch the NoSuchAlgorithmException from Provider.Service.newInstance, and see if the chained exception is IllegalArgumentException. If so, throw the IllegalArgumentException.
