Barret Rennie b0cbc31990 Bug 1510569 - Implement serializers for nsITransportSecurityInfo, nsIX509Cert, and nsIX509CertList r=froydnj,keeler,mayhemer
As part of the ongoing effort to port the nsIWebProgress events from
RemoteWebProgress / WebProgressChild to BrowserParent / BrowserChild, we need
to (de)serialize the nsITransportSecurityInfo instance across the IPC layer.
The existing code was calling `NS_SerializeToString` which has the overhead of
(a) allocating a buffer and also performing base64 encoding/decoding. This
patch adds `IPC::ParamTraits` implementations for `nsITransportSecurityInfo`,
`nsIX509Certificate`, and `nsIX509CertList` that (de)serializes the params
directly onto and off of the IPC message so that we don't go through the
overhead of allocating and encoding/decoding an additional buffer.

This (de)serialization will address the performance issues present in the
current implementation.

As a side effect, I also make nsITransportSecurityInfo a builtinclass XPCOM
interface, since the existing serialization code was assuming it was, there is
only one implementation, and it is in C++.
