Treat the guest profile as a custom profile with a special profile directory. This lets us get rid of a lot of the guest profile handling code. This patch does not attempt to restore to guest mode if Fennec is killed during a guest session. A later patch will fix that behavior. Patch renames GeckoProfile.getFromArgs to GeckoProfile.initFromArgs, because the method now has possible side-effects (i.e. deleting stale guest profiles). The new name also differentiates the method from the GeckoProfile.get family of methods. initFromArgs now always returns a profile (using the default profile if necessary), to make it easier for its callers.
