Bug 1249389 - part 6 - provide UniquePtr overload for nsIStartupCache::GetBuffer; r=erahm

The lone remaining startup cache-related uses of nsAutoArrayPtr are both
in TestStartupCache.cpp, for use with nsIStartupCache::GetBuffer.  The
uses can't use StartupCache::GetBuffer because StartupCache::GetBuffer
isn't visible outside of libxul, and TestStartupCache is a normal C++
unit test.

The Right Thing is to convert TestStartupCache to a gtest so we can see
libxul internal symbols and then delete nsIStartupCache entirely.
That's a bit complicated, as TestStartupCache doesn't fit nicely into
gtest's framework.  The simpler solution is to add a UniquePtr overload
in the interface that hides the XPCOM outparam management details.
