Kris Maglione 74481e8af4 Bug 1479035: Part 1 - Don't create event queues for stub nsThread wrappers. r=froydnj
Most of the times when we automatically create nsThread wrappers for threads
that don't already have them, we don't actually need the event targets, since
those threads don't run XPCOM event loops. Aside from wasting memory, actually
creating these event loops can lead to leaks if a thread tries to dispatch a
runnable to the queue which creates a reference cycle with the thread.

Not creating the event queues for threads that don't actually need them helps
avoid those foot guns, and also makes it easier to figure out which treads
actually run XPCOM event loops.
