The browser:purge-domain-data notification had two different intentions,
- to clear session store information and
- to clear all localStorage and sessionStorage
Firing the notification accomplished both at the same time, which from a
user perspective is of course totally not understandable. This commit
removes purge-domain-data in favor of the two distinct purge-localStorage and
purge-sessionStorage events. This gives callers more granular choice on
what they want to clear.

The implementation is based on a cache (datastore) living in the parent process and sync IPC calls initiated from content processes.
IPC communication is done using per principal/origin database actors which connect to the datastore.
The synchronous blocking of the main thread is done by creating a nested event target and spinning the event loop.
- stop inheriting StorageDBBridge in StorageDBThread and StorageDBChild
- move StorageDBThread and StorageDBChild initialization out of LocalStorageCache
- use IPC even for the intra-process communication in main process
- rationalize a bit storage observer code
- make StorageDBParent to always be created and destroyed on the background thread
This makes most users of |NS_EscapeURL| use the fallible version. A few are
left infallible as it seems like the entire function is assumed to be
infallible.
