I don't think you need any permission to initial a phone call using
the built in Activity. As long as you go through the built in activity
and included user interface, no perms required.
The CALL_PHONE permission is for making a call on your own without
using the built in Activity, as I understand it (if you want to write
your own dialer, or otherwise not go through the built in dialer).

(And the built in Activity probably HAS the CALL_PHONE permission, so
it's not your app that needs the permission if you are handing off,
etc.)
