This permission was needed for the memory bloat logging, which is used for
leaktest, including logging intentionally crashing processes. Now we restrict
ourselves to only allowing writes to the location needed for this logging,
rather than all of /private/var.

Currently the profiler mostly uses an array of strings to represent which
features are available and in use. This patch changes the profiler core to use
a uint32_t bitfield, which is a much simpler and faster representation.
(nsProfiler and the profiler add-on still use the array of strings, alas.) The
new ProfilerFeature type defines the values in the bitfield.
One side-effect of this change is that profiler_feature_active() now can be
used to query all features. Previously it was just a subset.
Another side-effect is that profiler_get_available_features() no longer incorrectly
indicates support for Java and stack-walking when they aren't supported. (The
handling of task tracer support is unchanged, because the old code handled it
correctly.)
The content process stores the incoming initial gfxVars updates, which are
lazily used when the gfxVars are first initialized.

Remove sync protocol AllocateTabId. Instead we generate tabId in
each process with nsContentUtils::GenerateTabId, and register
RemoteFrameInfo in parent process. If the tab id was generated from
a content process, it's sent parent through either PBrowserConstructor
or PContent::CreateChildProcess.

LocaleService serves two main functions. It is a central place for all code in the
engine to learn about locales, but it also does the language negotiation and selection.
The former is relevant in all processes, but the latter should only be performed
by the "main" process. In case of current Desktop Firefox, the parent process
is the one performing all the language negotiation, and content processes should
operate in the "client" mode.
In Fennec, there's a Java app on top of Gecko which should work as a "server"
and then all processes, including parent process of Gecko is merely a "client" for that.
This refactor finalizes this duality making it easily configurable to define in
which mode a given LocaleService operates.
The server-client model allows all clients to stay in sync with the server,
but operate transparently for all callers just returning the right values.
In order to initialize LocaleService in the client mode in child process with the
right locales I'm adding the list of app locales to the XPCOMInitData,
and then fire LocaleService::SetAppLocales in the child process initialization.
In order to keep the list up to date, I'm adding intl:app-locales-changed to
the list of observed topics, and when triggered, I send the updated list
to the child process, which updates LocaleService::SetAppLocales with the new
list.

IPCBlobInputStream is a new type of nsIInputStream that is used only in content
process when a Blob is sent from parent to child. This inputStream is for now,
just cloneable.
When the parent process sends a Blob to a content process, it has the Blob and
its inputStream. With its inputStream it creates a IPCBlobInputStreamParent
actor. This actor keeps the inputStream alive for following uses (not part of
this patch).
On the child side we will have, of course, a IPCBlobInputStreamChild actor.
This actor is able to create a IPCBlobInputStream when CreateStream() is
called. This means that 1 IPCBlobInputStreamChild can manage multiple
IPCBlobInputStreams each time one of them is cloned. When the last one of this
stream is released, the child actor sends a __delete__ request to the parent
side; the parent will be deleted, and the original inputStream, on the parent
side, will be released as well.
IPCBlobInputStream is a special inputStream because each method, except for
Available() fails. Basically, this inputStream cannot be used on the content
process for nothing else than knowing the size of the original stream.
In the following patches, I'll introduce an async way to use it.
This patch does a few things:
a) Adds the resources location from the .app directory to the read whitelist
b) When it's a non-packaged build, mach run (and various mach tests) set an environment variable for the repo location which we allow reads from.

The goal of this patch is to remove the call to the sync IPC
GetCompositorOptions message from TabChild::InitRenderingState. In order
to this, we have InitRenderingState take the CompositorOptions as an
argument instead, and propagate that backwards through the call sites.
Eventually we can propagate it back to a set of already-sync IPC
messages in PCompositorBridge that are used during layers id
registration (NotifyChildCreated, NotifyChildRecreated, etc.). Therefore
this patch effectively piggybacks the CompositorOptions sync IPC onto
these pre-existing sync IPC messages.
The one exception is when we propagate it back to the AdoptChild call.
If this message were sync we could just use it like the others and have
it return a CompositorOptions. However, it is async, so instead we add
another call to GetCompositorOptions here temporarily. This will be
removed in the next patch.

We add a new "on-off" protocol PURLClassifierLocal which calls
nsIURIClassifier.asyncClassifyLocalWithTables on construction and
calls back on destruction. Pretty much the same design as PURLClassifier.
In order to avoid code duplication, the actor implementation is templatized
and |MaybeInfo| in PURLClassifier.ipdl is moved around.
Test case is included and the custom event target is not in place for labelling.
The custom event target will be done in Bug 1353701.

A general outline of the COM handler (a.k.a. the "smart proxy"):
COM handlers are pieces of code that are loaded by the COM runtime along with
a proxy and are layered above that proxy. This enables the COM handler to
interpose itself between the caller and the proxy, thus providing the
opportunity for the handler to manipulate an interface's method calls before
those calls reach the proxy.
Handlers are regular COM components that live in DLLs and are declared in the
Windows registry. In order to allow for the specifying of a handler (and an
optional payload to be sent with the proxy), the mscom library allows its
clients to specify an implementation of the IHandlerProvider interface.
IHandlerProvider consists of 5 functions:
* GetHandler returns the CLSID of the component that should be loaded into
the COM client's process. If GetHandler returns a failure code, then no
handler is loaded.
* GetHandlerPayloadSize and WriteHandlerPayload are for obtaining the payload
data. These calls are made on a background thread but need to do their work
on the main thread. We declare the payload struct in IDL. MIDL generates two
functions, IA2Payload_Encode and IA2Payload_Decode, which are used by
mscom::StructToStream to read and write that struct to and from buffers.
* The a11y payload struct also includes an interface, IGeckoBackChannel, that
allows the handler to communicate directly with Gecko. IGeckoBackChannel
currently provides two methods: one to allow the handler to request fresh
cache information, and the other to provide Gecko with its IHandlerControl
interface.
* MarshalAs accepts an IID that specifies the interface that is about to be
proxied. We may want to send a more sophisticated proxy than the one that
is requested. The desired IID is returned by this function. In the case of
a11y interfaces, we should always return IAccessible2_3 if we are asked for
one of its parent interfaces. This allows us to eliminate round trips to
resolve more sophisticated interfaces later on.
* NewInstance, which is needed to ensure that all descendent proxies are also
imbued with the same handler code.
The main focus of this patch is as follows:
1. Provide an implementation of the IHandlerProvider interface;
2. Populate the handler payload (ie, the cache) with data;
3. Modify CreateHolderFromAccessible to specify the HandlerPayload object;
4. Receive the IHandlerControl interface from the handler DLL and move it
into the chrome process.
Some more information about IHandlerControl:
There is one IHandlerControl per handler DLL instance. It is the interface that
we call in Gecko when we need to dispatch an event to the handler. In order to
ensure that events are dispatched in the correct order, we need to dispatch
those events from the chrome main thread so that they occur in sequential order
with calls to NotifyWinEvent.

This is the most important part of the patch series. It removes the
PScreenManager protocol and use ScreenManager directly in the content
processes.
Initial and subsequent updates are sent via PContent::RefreshScreens.
struct ScreenDetails are kept to serialize Screen over IPC.
nsIScreenManager::ScreenForNativeWidget is removed because
nsIWidget::GetWidgetScreen can replace it. nsIScreen::GetId is removed
because it's not useful for the more general Screen class.
