Mike Shal 9e6798ac00 Bug 1402012 - Update buildconfig.py to use PartialConfigEnvironment; r=glandium
By using the PartialConfigEnvironment, the clients of buildconfig will
depend on config.statusd/ files instead of config.status directly.
Clients can access substs and defines using buildconfig.substs['FOO'] or
buildconfig.defines['BAR'], and then collect file-level dependencies for
make using buildconfig.get_dependencies(). All GENERATED_FILES rules
already make use of this because file_generate.py automatically includes
these dependencies (along with all python modules loaded).

As a result of this commit, re-running configure will no longer cause
the world to be rebuilt. Although config.status is updated, no build
steps use config.status directly and instead depend on values in
config.statusd/, which are written with FileAvoidWrite. Since those
files are not official targets according to the make backend, make won't
try to continually rebuild the backend when those files are out of date.
And since they are FileAvoidWrite, make will only re-run dependent steps
if the actual configure value has changed.

As a result of using JSON to load data from the config.statusd
directory, substs can be unicode (instead of a bare string type).
generate_certdata.py converts the subst manually to a string so the
value can be exported to the environment without issue on Windows.

Additionally, patching the buildconfig.substs dict no longer works, so
the unit-symbolstore.py test was modified to patch the underlying
buildconfig.substs._dict instead.

The other files that needed to be modified make use of all the defines
for the preprocessor. Those that are used during 'mach build' now use
buildconfig.defines['ALLDEFINES'], which maps to a special
FileAvoidWrite file generated for the PartialConfigEnvironment.
