J. Ryan Stinnett 555be6398c Bug 1415502 - Remove RDM browser-swap docs. r=jryans
These low level docs are getting out of date and causing confusion.  Further,
they are of limited value at this stage anyway.

* This module takes an "outer" <xul:browser> from a browser tab as described by
* Firefox's tabbrowser.xml and wires it up to an "inner" <iframe mozbrowser>
* browser element containing arbitrary page content of interest.
*
* The inner <iframe mozbrowser> element is _just_ the page content. It is not
* enough to to replace <xul:browser> on its own. <xul:browser> comes along
* with lots of associated functionality via XBL bindings defined for such
* elements in browser.xml and remote-browser.xml, and the Firefox UI depends on
* these various things to make the UI function.
*
* By mapping various methods, properties, and messages from the outer browser
* to the inner browser, we can control the content inside the inner browser
* using the standard Firefox UI elements for navigation, reloading, and more.
*
* The approaches used in this module were chosen to avoid needing changes to
* the core browser for this specialized use case. If we start to increase
* usage of <iframe mozbrowser> in the core browser, we should avoid this module
* and instead refactor things to work with mozbrowser directly.
*
* For the moment though, this serves as a sufficient path to connect the
* Firefox UI to a mozbrowser.
