bug 1470918 - use only one thread for all DataStorage instances r=franziskus,froydnj

Browse Source 
This introduces a helper class that provides one thread all DataStorage
instances can use to do background work. This thread should have a light
workload which mainly consists of reading some files at startup, periodically
writing to these files, and writing them again at shutdown. One thread should be
able to handle this and in any case having multiple threads trying to perform
i/o at the same time would probably be less efficient than merely performing the
work sequentially.

// DataStorageSharedThread provides one shared thread that every DataStorage
// instance can use to do background work (reading/writing files and scheduling
// timers). This means we don't have to have one thread per DataStorage
// instance. The shared thread is initialized when the first DataStorage
// instance is initialized (Initialize is idempotent, so it's safe to call
// multiple times in any case).
// When Gecko shuts down, it will send a "profile-change-teardown" notification
// followed by "profile-before-change". As a result of the first event, all
// DataStorage instances will dispatch an event to write out their backing data.
// As a result of the second event, the shared thread will be shut down, which
// ensures that these events actually run (this has to happen in two phases to
// ensure that all DataStorage instances get a chance to dispatch their event
// before the background thread gets shut down) (again Shutdown is idempotent,
// so it's safe to call multiple times).
// In some cases (e.g. xpcshell), no profile notifications will be sent, so
// instead we rely on the notifications "xpcom-shutdown" and
// "xpcom-shutdown-threads", respectively.
