Historically, we had support for some GNOME VFS protocols through the
gnomevfs library, and this was under extension. This may not have been
built by default when it was introduced, but GNOME upstream moved those
things into Gtk itself, and we then got support for the new Gio-based
protocol, similar to what we had through the gnomevfs library.
Time passes, and we switched off the gnomevfs library entirely, and
enabled the Gio-based protocol handlers by default. We then removed
everything related to the gnomevfs library.
Fast forward to now, and disabling Gio support in Firefox just doesn't
make sense, and leaving the gio protocol handler as an extension doesn't
make sense either.
As it is a protocol handler, its natural place is under
netwerk/protocol, which is where we're moving it here.
The netwerk/protocol subdirectories being handled automatically, we
don't need to add the moved directory in any DIRS variable.
