There hasn't been any traction on this feature, and we keep
paying the maintenance and code size and memory usage penalty
of having this implementation.
We can revive this from VCS history in the future if we decide
to start working on it again. In the mean time, it's better
to remove it.
This patch makes most Run() declarations in subclasses of nsIRunnable have the
same form: |NS_IMETHOD Run() override|.
As a result of these changes, I had to add |override| to a couple of other
functions to satisfy clang's -Winconsistent-missing-override warning.

Returning a null editing host for a non-editable is a normal failing case,
which does not need a warning.

This is so that when we have code like:
elem.animate({ opacity: 0 }, 1000)
the resulting Animation object is kept alive by |elem| based on the following
ownership chain:
elem --(strong)--> KeyframeEffectReadOnly --(strong)--> Animation
Now, there is an ownership cycle introduced here because KeyframeEffectReadOnly
objects also store owning references to their target elements. This is broken
when the Animation finishes (if it does not fill forwards) or is cancelled
since either event will trigger a call to
KeyframeEffectReadOnly::UpdateTargetRegistration.
If the Animation fills forwards, the resource will not be released until
it is cancelled. For Animations corresponding to CSS Animations / CSS
Transitions this happens when the Element is unbound or when the corresponding
style property is updated causing the animation to be replaced or removed.
For the general case of script-generated animations, however, this cycle won't
be broken until the Element is unbound and all external references to the
Animation or KeyframeEffectReadOnly are dropped.
It's unfortunate that we can't more aggressively prune these objects but it's
what the spec currently says. I've posted to the mailing list[1] about this but
have yet to find a good solution.

Now that Declaration implements nsIStyleRule, we don't need the memory
overhead of storing a StyleRule object for style attributes.
We also need to change this prior to patch 5, because the changes in
patch 5 that will allow rules to change (but declarations not) would
otherwise break due to style attribute object merging done by
nsAttrValue::ParseStyleAttribute.

The bulk of this commit was generated with a script, executed at the top
level of a typical source code checkout. The only non-machine-generated
part was modifying MFBT's moz.build to reflect the new naming.
CLOSED TREE makes big refactorings like this a piece of cake.
