After the previous patches, we no longer rely on the component manager
to incidentally start up XPConnect when we load the JS loader service
or to hold the JS component loader alive, so the do_GetService() call
for the JS loader in XPCOMInit.cpp can be removed. After that is done,
the JS loader is no longer used as an XPCOM component, so all of the
boilerplate for that can be removed.

JS is the only file extension actually supported, and there are a few
layers of cruft that can be eliminated if we specialize it.
This eliminates one XPCOM registration of the JS component loader.

The NS_NewTimer* family of functions, when using a custom event target,
currently go through a path that looks something like:
auto timer = createTimer()
timer->SetTarget(target);
// call the requisite Init* function
return timer;
This setup is inefficient, because SetTarget requires the timer mutex to
be acquired. The mutex acquisition here is completely unnecessary,
because the timer hasn't yet been shared out to the wider world; we can
set the timer target without acquiring the mutex at all because we know
that no sharing is possible at this point.
This patch reworks things somewhat to make that possible.
Static atom registration is a bit of a mess. NS_InitAtomTable() calls
nsGkAtoms::RegisterStaticAtoms(), which calls NS_RegisterStaticAtoms(); i.e. we
go from nsAtomTable.cpp to nsGkAtoms.cpp and back.
(And NS_RegisterStaticAtoms() is declared in a .cpp file, not a .h file!)
This commit makes NS_InitAtomTable() a friend of nsGkAtoms, so NS_InitAtomTable
can see nsGkAtoms's atoms array directly, thus removing the need for
NS_RegisterAtomTable() and nsGkAtoms::RegisterStaticAtoms().
This commit also removes an out-of-date part of a comment from XPCOMInit.cpp.

As initially implemented, nsITLSServerSocket by default enabled the use of the
TLS session cache provided by NSS. However, no consumers of nsITLSServerSocket
actually used it. Because it was an option, though, PSM had to jump through some
hoops to a) make it work in the first place and b) not have NSS panic on
shutdown. Furthermore, it meant increased memory usage for every user of Firefox
(and again, nothing actually used the feature, so this was for naught).
In bug 1479918, we discovered that if PSM shut down before Necko, NSS could
attempt to acquire a lock on the session cache that had been deleted, causing a
shutdown hang. We probably should make it less easy to make this mistake in NSS,
but in the meantime bug 1479918 needs uplifting and this workaround is the
safest, most straight-forward way to achieve this.

Fairly straightforward, just a blanket removal. Haven't heard
anything on dev-platform or fx-data-dev regarding this removal,
so I think it's likely safe to remove on Nightly, and we can
revert if anyone makes a fuss.
As part of removing the HangMonitor, I renamed a few things and
reorganized the namespaces to not depend on a HangMonitor
namespace. Hopefully this doesn't produce too much noise in the
diff, it just seemed appropriate to move everything around
rather than keep dangling vestiges of the old system.

We are going to want to include some "gecko internal" types in more places in
the codebase, and we have unused includes of some of these headers in non-libxul
files.
This patch just cleans up these unnecssary includes.
Due to the decision to keep the old API on nsXPTInterfaceInfo in part 4, this is
a fairly straightforward patch.
1. I had to change a couple of consumers of `IsRetval()` due to the movement of
that flag.
2. I changed all code which held a nsIInterfaceInfo to hold an `const
nsXPTInterfaceInfo*` instead.
3. I changed code which used the nsIInterfaceInfoManager to instead call the
static methods on nsXPTInterfaceInfo.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to figure out a way to make firefox build & run in
the intermediate stages of these commits. Because of this, I am going to just
delete most of the code which I am deleting in the first patch, as I figure that
those are somewhat uninteresting changes, and then make the other changes in the
following patches.
In total, the following things are deleted:
1. All of xpcom/typelib, except for `xpt/tools` - this directory is being
subsumed entirely into xpcom/reflect/xptinfo.
2. Most of the code in xpcom/reflect/xptinfo, it is being rewritten to avoid
allocating and contain all of the necessary data structures.
3. idl-parser's typelib.py XPT generator, as it will be replaced.
4. Most includes of files which have been deleted.
NOTE: xpcom/typelib/xpt/tools/xpt.py was not removed, as it is used by bundling
code & bundling tests, which we don't want to remove yet.
Historically, PSM has handled tracking NSS resources, releasing them, and
shutting down NSS in a coordinated manner (i.e. preventing races,
use-after-frees, etc.). This approach has proved intractable. This patch
introduces a new approach: have XPCOM shut down NSS after all threads have been
joined and the component manager has been shut down (and so there shouldn't be
any XPCOM objects holding NSS resources).
Note that this patch only attempts to determine if this approach will work. If
it does, we will have to go through alter and remove the remnants of the old
approach (i.e. nsNSSShutDownPreventionLock and related machinery). This will be
done in bug 1421084.

This was created for B2G and isn't really useful otherwise. It only works on
Linux, and it's behind the memory.system_memory_reporter pref, which is false
by default.

And remove unreachable code after MOZ_CRASH_UNSAFE_OOL().
MOZ_CRASH_UNSAFE_OOL causes data collection because crash strings are annotated to crash-stats and are publicly visible. Firefox data stewards must do data review on usages of this macro. However, all the crash strings this patch collects with MOZ_CRASH_UNSAFE_OOL are already collected with NS_RUNTIMEABORT.

Currently the Gecko Profiler defines a moderate amount of stuff when
MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER is undefined. It also #includes various headers, including
JS ones. This is making it difficult to separate Gecko's media stack for
inclusion in Servo.
This patch greatly simplifies how things are exposed. The starting point is:
- GeckoProfiler.h can be #included unconditionally;
- everything else from the profiler must be guarded by MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER.
In practice this introduces way too many #ifdefs, so the patch loosens it by
adding no-op macros for a number of the most common operations.
The net result is that #ifdefs and macros are used a bit more, but almost
nothing is exposed in non-MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER builds (including
ProfilerMarkerPayload.h and GeckoProfiler.h), and understanding what is exposed
is much simpler than before.
Note also that in BHR, ThreadStackHelper is now entirely absent in
non-MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER builds.
