Credentialless is a new cross-origin embedder policy which allows us
to not enforcing CORP when loading cross-origin resources while
providing SharedArrayBuffer.
There are two main things involved here:
1. Fetching cross-origin no-CORS resources omits credentials
- This is done by applying `LOAD_ANONYMOUS` flag to the request
2. Other requests sent with credentials require the server's explicit
permission through the CORS protocol or the CORS header
- This is done by expanding `ProcessCrossOriginResourcePolicyHeader`
function to apply the necessary checks.

There are two parts to this patch; both affect only Linux:
1. The GMP sandbox policy is adjusted to allow certain syscalls used in
shared memory creation (ftruncate and fallocate). However, the file
broker is not used; the process still has no access to files in /dev/shm.
2. The profiler is not initialized for GMP processes unless memfd_create
is available (so the process can create shared memory to send
profiling data back, without filesystem access), or the GMP sandbox
is disabled (either at runtime or build time).
As of this patch, profiling GMP processes on Linux should succeed on
distros with kernel >=3.17 (Oct. 2014), but native stack frames won't
have symbols (and may be incorrectly unwound, not that it matters much
without symbols); see the bug for more info. Pseudo-stack frames and
markers should work, however.

Drop the com.apple.security.cs.allow-dyld-environment-variables entitlement to disallow use of dyld environment variables in signed production builds.
Leave the entitlement in for signed developer builds.
Firefox gtests depend on the use of DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH. However, testing infrastructure does not run gtests on signed builds and therefore gtests are not impacted by this change. gtests could be run on signed developer builds in the future which will still allow dyld environment variables after this change.
browser.production.entitlements.xml and plugin-container.production.entitlements.xml are not used, but being kept up to date.

Change XUL and other dylibs to be built with an @rpath/<dylib> install name (LC_ID_DYLIB) instead of @executable_path/<dylib>.
Change executables to be built with an @rpath dyld search path set to @executable_path by default so that @rpath/<dylib> dylibs in the same directory can be resolved. For executables not in the same directory as @rpath dylibs, such as plugin-container, set a relative @rpath such as @executable_path/../../../.
Previously, dylib install names were set as @executable_path/<dylib> allowing them to be resolved by dyld for the loading executable if the executable resided in the same directory as the dylib. For executables not in the same directory as the dylibs, dyld resolved these dylibs using DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH set before launching the process by Firefox code. With this change, loading does not rely on DYLD environment variables. Instead, dylibs have an install name set as @rpath/<dylib> and each executable loading a dylib has its @rpath set at compile-time to refer to dylib directory.

Before this change, we wouldn't re-try sending fds if the first attempt
to send them failed, meaning that some fds wouldn't arrive if there was
any error sending (e.g. because the send buffer was full, which
is more common on macOS).
This new approach ensures we don't record that we've sent the fds until
the message is marked as successful, and should avoid the macOS errors.

This is made possible by part 1, which made it possible to send more messages
using IPC::Channel. A limit is still in place, however it is now substantially
higher, hopefully making it effectively unlimited for practical purposes.

This is done by splitting messages with large numbers of handles into multiple
`sendmsg` calls, each of which contains less than the maximum number of
transferred handles per-message, and stitching the message back together on the
receiving side. Most of the work on the receiving side was already handled by
the IPC::Channel code, so the work required was only to ensure we could split
the handle list up when sending.

In order to know if the mIsThirdPartyContextToTopWindow was set in the
loadInfo of the channel, we use maybe to hold the value. So, we can know
if it was set before.
This patch also addes two methods in LoadInfo to clear and know if the
value is set.

Win32k Lockdown state must be initialized on the main thread, but currently
a process launcher may be the first thing to read it on the IPC Thread
Initializing Win32k Lockdown state also relies on the gfxPlatform being
initialized, but that also isn't explicit anywhere.
This patch ensures both things are true: Always ensure that Win32k State is
initialized before queuing a process launch to the IPC Thread, and always
ensure that gfxPlatform is initialized before attempting to read the
gfx state.

This patch mostly turns on the features set up by the earlier patches:
allow connecting to the X server and reading various related things
(.Xauthority, GPU device info in sysfs, etc.). It also turns off Mesa's
shader cache in the RDD process; that shouldn't be needed here, and
disabling it lets us avoid dealing with a few things in the sandbox
policy that we'd rather not (e.g., `getpwuid`).

As serializing IPCStream no longer requires a manager or FileDescriptor array,
the arguments are no longer necessary, and can be removed. The AutoIPCStream
helper can also be removed, as managed actors are no longer used for
serialization, so a delayed start callback is not necessary.
The delayed start parameter is also removed from nsIIPCSerializableInputStream
instances, but is still present as `aAllowLazy` on the toplevel serialization
methods.

the nsIMIMEInputStream type contains extra metadata header information
which shouldn't be lost when serializing the type over IPC. This patch
changes the LazyStream serialization to take this into account and only
serialize the value within the nsMIMEInputStream when sending a lazy
stream over IPC.
This information is specifically used by HTTP channels in order to
populate POST request headers.

This is a complete rewrite of RemoteLazyInputStream to run off of its own
toplevel protocol, rather than being managed by other protocols like
PBackground or PContent. This should improve performance thanks to no longer
needing to operate on a main or worker thread, and due to no longer needing the
migration step for the stream actor.
This also acts as a step towards no longer requiring a manager actor to
serialize input streams, as the type is now actor-agnostic, and should support
being sent over IPC between any pair of processes.
