As part of the WebRender rollout, we have been only allowing users
meeting particular platform, battery and screen size requirements (among
others) to get WebRender by default. This patch adds support for battery
and screen size filters in the blocklist rules to allow us to control
that more easily. It also adds kludgey support for checking for recent
Windows 10 build numbers for allowlist purposes; implementing this the
proper way would require an implementation like driver version checks,
which are much more complicated than most of the rules.

The blocklist currently works by checking the current configuration
against a set of GfxDriverInfo rules. We stop searching as soon as we
find the first match, and return whatever status code that has.
This patch adds a second pass for features marked for allowing. The
current blocklisting rules will still apply as normal. However it will
then review the allowlist rules using the same logic. If we don't get
a match, then we block the feature otherwise we use the allow status
code given in the rule.
New status codes introduced as part of this patch are as follows:
DENIED - Did not match any rules on the allowlist.
ALLOW_ALWAYS - Same as STATUS_OK but passed the allowlist.
ALLOW_QUALIFIED - Same as ALLOW_ALWAYS but should be controlled by
our qualified preference for experimentation purposes.

This patch also exposes the desktop environment and window protocol on
the gfx blocklist, allowing us more control over feature deployment.
This will help with the slow rollout of WebRender to release channels.

Investigation showed that on this platform the texture unit state becomes
corrupted whenever we set the non-identity swizzling (getting garbage from textureSize()).
Given no easy workaround, we disable swizzling for this GPU family on Mac, for now.

If an XPIDL interface has a method or attribute that is [notxpcom],
then it is implicitly treated as [builtinclass], even if it is not
marked as such. For clarity, this patch goes through and marks every
place that relies on this behavior (aside from some test code).

This reunifies the behaviour changed in bug 1294232 to ensure that the
vendor ID of GfxInfo is the same between graphics hardware. Vendor ID
should always represent Intel, Nvidia, ATI, etc such that callers can
reason about the performance characteristics without being exposed to
the driver implementation for that platform. Now we split off the more
detailed driver information into the "driver vendor" which will contain
more information, such as what implementation is being used (e.g.
mesa/i965 for modern Intel graphics cards). This field is exposed to the
blocklist and will be useful for allowing different rules for different
driver implementations.
We also now provide a default implementation for
GfxInfoBase::FindMonitors for platforms missing support. This will just
list the primary screen size used without listing secondary monitors,
refresh rate, and such.

It just doesn't work.
We add the preference media.wmf.force.allow-p010-format to force enable it.
