Kris Maglione dabd327027 Bug 1348442: Part 1 - Allow loading preloaded stylesheets asynchronously. r=heycam
These changes allow us to asynchronously load pre-loaded stylesheets, in a way
that's similar to ChromeUtils.compileScript. The new method returns a Promise
which resolves to the preloaded sheet once it's finished loading.

This will allow us to remove the last remaining use of synchronous channels in
moz-extension: URLs.
