/**
* Managing safe shutdown of asynchronous services.
*
* Firefox shutdown is composed of phases that take place
* sequentially. Typically, each shutdown phase removes some
* capabilities from the application. For instance, at the end of
* phase profileBeforeChange, no service is permitted to write to the
* profile directory (with the exception of Telemetry). Consequently,
* if any service has requested I/O to the profile directory before or
* during phase profileBeforeChange, the system must be informed that
* these requests need to be completed before the end of phase
* profileBeforeChange. Failing to inform the system of this
* requirement can (and has been known to) cause data loss.
*
* Example: At some point during shutdown, the Add-On Manager needs to
* ensure that all add-ons have safely written their data to disk,
* before writing its own data. Since the data is saved to the
* profile, this must be completed during phase profileBeforeChange.
*
* AsyncShutdown.profileBeforeChange.addBlocker(
* "Add-on manager: shutting down",
* function condition() {
* // Do things.
* // Perform I/O that must take place during phase profile-before-change
* return promise;
* }
* });
*
* In this example, function |condition| will be called at some point
* during phase profileBeforeChange and phase profileBeforeChange
* itself is guaranteed to not terminate until |promise| is either
* resolved or rejected.
