Dan Glastonbury 7699520bf5 Bug 1624550 - P4: Cleanup APIs for setting BrowsingContext::UseGlobalHistory. r=farre
This value is determined in Parent process and passed down to nsDocShell. Delete
the messages to pass the setting down and set it on the BrowsingContext in the
Parent process.

Refactor the code that determines to opt-out of using global history. Code
inspection determines that windowless browsing contexts want to opt-out as well
as any frame with `disableglobalhistory` attribute set on it.
