Originally, RDD reused the GPU process selector since they were
using all the same services, and it reduced the number of places
that had to be touched. Now that RDD needs pref handling, it
needs its own process selector to avoid GPU inheriting pref
handling.

Before bug 938437, we had a rather large and error-prone
nsStaticXULComponents.cpp used to register all modules. That was
replaced with clever use of the linker, which allowed to avoid the mess
that maintaining that file was.
Fast forward to now, where after bug 1524687 and other work that
preceded it, we have a much smaller number of remaining static xpcom
components, registered via this linker hack, and don't expect to add
any new ones. The list should eventually go down to zero.
Within that context, it seems to be the right time to get rid of the
magic, and with it the problems it causes on its own.
Some of those components could probably be trivially be converted to
static registration via .conf files, but I didn't want to deal with the
possible need to increase the number of dummy modules in XPCOMInit.cpp.
They can still be converted as a followup.

Currently, when we build the component registry at startup, we exclude any
entry with a process selector which doesn't match the current process. When we
switch to static lookup tables, however, that check is going to have to happen
for every lookup, since we can't alter the table at runtime.
That may not matter much, given how expensive the rest of the component lookup
code is relative to ProcessMatchesSelector, but it's also easy and cheap
enough to generate a lookup table for all possible ProcessSelector values, and
do a quick index check instead.

clang can handle MSVC-like codepaths generally, so we want to use those
when building with clang for Windows. So we switch _MSC_VER over to _WIN32
to pick up those codepaths when compiling for Windows with clang.
Additionally, we relax the ordering of sections for the same scenario.
Note that we do need to tell clang to use -fms-extensions with the MSVC code,
we do that in the mingw clang build job patch.

Overall, this makes the whole setup less fragile, and make it work with
LTO in more situations.
