All the SizeOf{In,Ex}cludingThis() functions take a MallocSizeOf function
which measures memory blocks. This patch introduces a new type, SizeOfState,
which includes a MallocSizeOf function *and* a table of already-measured
pointers, called SeenPtrs. This gives us a general mechanism to measure
graph-like data structures, by recording which nodes have already been
measured. (This approach is used in a number of existing reporters, but not in
a uniform fashion.)
The patch also converts the window memory reporting to use SizeOfState in a lot
of places, all the way through to the measurement of Elements. This is a
precursor for bug 1383977 which will measure Stylo elements, which involve
Arcs.
The patch also converts the existing mAlreadyMeasuredOrphanTrees table in the
OrphanReporter to use the new mechanism.
