The NS_NewTimer* family of functions, when using a custom event target,
currently go through a path that looks something like:
auto timer = createTimer()
timer->SetTarget(target);
// call the requisite Init* function
return timer;
This setup is inefficient, because SetTarget requires the timer mutex to
be acquired. The mutex acquisition here is completely unnecessary,
because the timer hasn't yet been shared out to the wider world; we can
set the timer target without acquiring the mutex at all because we know
that no sharing is possible at this point.
This patch reworks things somewhat to make that possible.
This was done automatically replacing:
s/mozilla::Move/std::move/
s/ Move(/ std::move(/
s/(Move(/(std::move(/
Removing the 'using mozilla::Move;' lines.
And then with a few manual fixups, see the bug for the split series..

This patch refactors the nsThread event queue to clean it up and to make it easier to restructure. The fundamental concepts are as follows:
Each nsThread will have a pointer to a refcounted SynchronizedEventQueue. A SynchronizedEQ takes care of doing the locking and condition variable work when posting and popping events. For the actual storage of events, it delegates to an AbstractEventQueue data structure. It keeps a UniquePtr to the AbstractEventQueue that it uses for storage.
Both SynchronizedEQ and AbstractEventQueue are abstract classes. There is only one concrete implementation of SynchronizedEQ in this patch, which is called ThreadEventQueue. ThreadEventQueue uses locks and condition variables to post and pop events the same way nsThread does. It also encapsulates the functionality that DOM workers need to implement their special event loops (PushEventQueue and PopEventQueue). In later Quantum DOM work, I plan to have another SynchronizedEQ implementation for the main thread, called SchedulerEventQueue. It will have special code for the cooperatively scheduling threads in Quantum DOM.
There are two concrete implementations of AbstractEventQueue in this patch: EventQueue and PrioritizedEventQueue. EventQueue replaces the old nsEventQueue. The other AbstractEventQueue implementation is PrioritizedEventQueue, which uses multiple queues for different event priorities.
The final major piece here is ThreadEventTarget, which splits some of the code for posting events out of nsThread. Eventually, my plan is for multiple cooperatively scheduled nsThreads to be able to share a ThreadEventTarget. In this patch, though, each nsThread has its own ThreadEventTarget. The class's purpose is just to collect some related code together.
One final note: I tried to avoid virtual dispatch overhead as much as possible. Calls to SynchronizedEQ methods do use virtual dispatch, since I plan to use different implementations for different threads with Quantum DOM. But all the calls to EventQueue methods should be non-virtual. Although the methods are declared virtual, all the classes used are final and the concrete classes involved should all be known through templatization.

This patch makes the following changes to the macros.
- Removes PROFILER_LABEL_FUNC. It's only suitable for use in functions outside
classes, due to PROFILER_FUNCTION_NAME not getting class names, and it was
mostly misused.
- Removes PROFILER_FUNCTION_NAME. It's no longer used, and __func__ is
universally available now anyway.
- Combines the first two string literal arguments of PROFILER_LABEL and
PROFILER_LABEL_DYNAMIC into a single argument. There was no good reason for
them to be separate, and it forced a '::' in the label, which isn't always
appropriate. Also, the meaning of the "name_space" argument was interpreted
in an interesting variety of ways.
- Adds an "AUTO_" prefix to PROFILER_LABEL and PROFILER_LABEL_DYNAMIC, to make
it clearer they construct RAII objects rather than just being function calls.
(I myself have screwed up the scoping because of this in the past.)
- Fills in the 'js::ProfileEntry::Category::' qualifier within the macro, so
the caller doesn't need to. This makes a *lot* more of the uses fit onto a
single line.
The patch also makes the following changes to the macro uses (beyond those
required by the changes described above).
- Fixes a bunch of labels that had gotten out of sync with the name of the
class and/or function that encloses them.
- Removes a useless PROFILER_LABEL use within a trivial scope in
EventStateManager::DispatchMouseOrPointerEvent(). It clearly wasn't serving
any useful purpose. It also serves as extra evidence that the AUTO_ prefix is
a good idea.
- Tweaks DecodePool::SyncRunIf{Preferred,Possible} so that the labelling is
done within them, instead of at their callsites, because that's a more
standard way of doing things.

Bug 1295053 removed most uses of NS_METHOD and NS_CALLBACK, but one use was
unintentionally left behind (in the XPIDL parser) and another has since crept
in (in MediaDrmCDMProxy.h).
So this patch removes NS_METHOD and NS_CALLBACK. NS_METHOD_(nsresult) and
NS_CALLBACK_(nsresult, T) can still be used for the same purpose, but those
alternatives are less likely to be used unintentionally.

This makes the order of |aDelay| and |aType| match those of the InitWith*()
functions.
I've made this change because the inconsistency tripped me up during the
development of part 4.
