This simplifies the logic around MessageTask's lifecycle to make
ownership as clear as possible and reduce the number of redundant
checks.
This new change no longer clears the mChannel member when the
MessageTask is disconnected, instead relying on isInList() to check
whether the MessageTask is still in the channel's mPending list. This is
already being automatically managed as the mPending list is modified,
and should avoid potential usage mistakes.

This change instead recovers from unhandled special messages by reporting a
normal IPC error, which should be handled using the normal IPC error
mechanisms.

This should make the logic around clearing a MessageChannel more obviously
correct by holding the mutex when accessing fields which are traditionally
guarded by the mutex. These lock calls shouldn't introduce performance issues
as the lock should be uncontended.

This state was only used by the ProcessLink MessageLink implementation, and no
longer exists with the new PortLink implementation, so can be removed.
Differential Revision: https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D119353
Now that PortLink is the only MessageLink implementation, it is no longer
necessary to support sharing a single `RefCountedMonitor` between multiple
MessageChannels, meaning that we can construct the monitor directly in the
`MessageChannel` constructor. The monitor still needs to be refcounted due to
being used by the PortLink as part of the listener implementation.

This makes things generally more clear, and avoids a long list of initializers
in the MessageChannel constructor. In addition, some fields which are never
modified are marked as `const`.

After looking through the methods which have this assertion, I couldn't
find any examples of places where not having a specific "link thread"
sequence would cause any issues. I think these assertions can and should
be removed.
The main change required by this was to remove the `!NS_IsMainThread()`
assertion from the SchedulerGroup listener. Due to how callbacks work,
it would be possible for a vsync message to be detected by a
MessageChannel from the main thread if it was sent before the channel
was bound. I don't believe that this change should cause any issues.

This removes the last form of unique link between two MessageChannels so that
all MessageChannels communicate using PortLink, as it is fairly straightforward
to use PortLink to communicate between two threads in-process.

The NodeController and NodeChannel types act as the backbone connecting the
existing IPC logic and driving the ports routing code. Individual NodeChannel
objects wrap and respond to messages from IPC::Channel, and the NodeController
orchestrates all messaging for a process.
The design of these types are inspired by the types with the same names from
Mojo but have been simplified and streamlined to only support features used by
Gecko.
Support for attaching ports or handles to messages hasn't been added yet, but
can be added in follow-up patches.

This both helps IDE integration and will help avoid build issues which would've
otherwise cropped up when adding new files to the directory for bug 1706374.

`High` priority is being used for vsync tasks, so we should rename it to
make it clear, and renaming it also makes our priority naming less
confusing.

Note that this patch only transforms the use of the nsDataHashtable type alias
to a directly equivalent use of nsTHashMap. It does not change the specification
of the hash key type to make use of the key class deduction that nsTHashMap
allows for in some cases. That can be done in a separate step, but requires more
attention.

Check `profiler_is_locked_on_current_thread()` before recording an IPC marker.
This removes the deadlock found in bug 1675406:
- SamplerThread: During sampling, some data is recorded into the profile buffer, which locks ProfileChunkedBuffer::mMutex, this triggers some chunk updates that are sent to ProfileBufferGlobalController, which attempts to lock its mutex.
- Main thread: An IPC with an update arrives, ProfileBufferGlobalController locks its mutex, then it sends an IPC out, this records a marker into ProfileChunkedBuffer, which attempts to lock its mMutex.
With this patch and bug 1671403, that last IPC will not record a marker anymore.
