/**
 * Records information about browser sessions.
 *
 * This serves as an interface to both current session information as
 * well as a history of previous sessions.
 *
 * Typically only one instance of this will be installed in an
 * application. It is typically managed by an XPCOM service. The
 * instance is instantiated at application start; onStartup is called
 * once the profile is installed; onShutdown is called during shutdown.
 *
 * We currently record state in preferences. However, this should be
 * invisible to external consumers. We could easily swap in a different
 * storage mechanism if desired.
 *
 * Please note the different semantics for storing times and dates in
 * preferences. Full dates (notably the session start time) are stored
 * as strings because preferences have a 32-bit limit on integer values
 * and milliseconds since UNIX epoch would overflow. Many times are
 * stored as integer offsets from the session start time because they
 * should not overflow 32 bits.
 *
 * Since this records history of all sessions, there is a possibility
 * for unbounded data aggregation. This is curtailed through:
 *
 *   1) An "idle-daily" observer which delete sessions older than
 *      MAX_SESSION_AGE_MS.
 *   2) The creator of this instance explicitly calling
 *      `pruneOldSessions`.
 *
 * @param branch
 *        (string) Preferences branch on which to record state.
