This fixes the following in the IDL:
1. Misleading or unclear parameter names in the IDL. |cn| in practice is the
concatenation of the CN of the server cert and the port of the server, and
|issuer| is the Organization of the issuer cert of the server cert.
2. Use of the |wstring| type. |AString| is generally preferred, and has the
benefit of letting implementations skip null checks due to the use of
references.
3. Using an explicit |canceled| outparam instead of just setting a return type.
There is no need for the outparam if the return type can be used.
4. Using |long| (int32_t) for |selectedIndex|. |unsigned long| (uint32_t) is
more logical, and paves the way for future changes.
This fixes the following in the Android implementation:
1. Lack of checks to ensure the QueryInterface() call succeeded. In practice,
the call will always succeed, but it's good practice to check anyways.
2. Setting a variable to an nsIPrefService instance initially, then later
setting it to a pref branch instance later on. This is confusing and
unnecessary.
This fixes the following in the desktop implementation:
1. Lack of null pointer checking.
2. Trying to get a parent window ref off a context that doesn't actually support
doing so.
3. Setting a variable to an nsIPrefService instance initially, then later
setting it to a pref branch instance later on. This is confusing and
unnecessary.
4. Abusal of the CAPS bundle.
5. Unnecessary variables.
6. Variables declared far away from where they are used.
7. Variable shadowing.
8. Style issues.
9. Lack of documentation.
This also fixes the following:
1. Lack of localisation notes.
