This is the Refcount Balancer.  See
https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/performance/memory/refcount_tracing_and_balancing.html
for documentation.

Note that the `fix_stacks.py` script is used in several other places in the
repository.
Add the refcount balancer to mozilla/tools so it can be maintained more easily. This tool was written by Chris Waterson with contributions by a number of other people. I modified the files being added here from the most recent versions on http://www.mozilla.org/performance/refcnt-balancer.html in the following ways: 1) add find-comptr-leakers.pl to find leaks in nsCOMPtr logs 2) allow make-tree.pl to subtract nsCOMPtr logs 2000-07-12 05:32:54 +04:00			`This is the Refcount Balancer.

Bug 1776103 - Clean up DMD docs. r=xpcom-reviewers,nika DONTBUILD I went through the docs and fixed up a few things. I also removed the other version that was imported under XPCOM, updated a few obsolete MDN links that now have updated docs, and deleted some ancient Bonsai links.

Bug 1619840 - Remove `fix_{linux,macosx}_stack.py` and `fix_stack_using_bpsyms.py`. r=erahm This commit removes `test_fix_stack_using_bpsyms.py`. That test can't easily be modified to work with `fix_stacks.py` because it relies on internal implementation details of `fix_stack_using_bpsym.py`. The unit testing done in the `fix-stacks` repo provides test coverage that is as good or better.
