6c6503abf1 Bug 742153 part 3. Implement codegen for dictionary arguments. r=peterv
Another implementation option would be to put all the dictionaries in a single
file and have a static global set of ids which works across all dictionaries
and is initialized once at startup or so.  That would also handle cross-file
dictionary inheritance better.

One problem that remains is the fake descriptor business.  At the moment this
does not allow interface types inside dictionaries.  We could probably work
around this by either refactoring code to make it possible to get the declType
independently of the actual conversion template (whether because it lives in a
separate function or because the conversion template generator knows to just
return an empty string when the fake descriptor provirder is passed) or by
figuring out a way to pass an actual descriptor provider to dictionary codegen.
