This patch implements hal::SetProcessPriority() on Linux and leverages
it to make it more likely that the parent process and foreground tab
survive an OOM situation, letting Linux' OOM killer reap preallocated
processes and background tabs first when reclaiming memory.
This is achieved by setting the `oom_score_adj` values of said processes
such that they will be killed in this order:
* Preallocated processes will be the first to go, they don't contain
user data and are not visible, so they're a good candidate to free up
memory
* Background tabs will be killed next, we don't generate crash reports
for thoes nor do we inform the user, we just reload the tab, so in
most cases one being killed will only be a small annoyance
* Background tabs playing video come next, but only if they're not also
playing or recording audio
* Finally foreground tabs will be killed as a last resort, background
tabs playing audio or with an active WebRTC session are also
considered to be in the foreground as the user will immediately notice
if they crash
Note that this patch only implements the low-level plumbing. The process
priority manager has not been enabled on Linux yet so that needs to
happen before this actually works.

This prevents copies and avoids the hack we have to avoid this, which
right now is using nsDependent{C,}String.
Non-virtual actors can still use `nsString` if they need to on the
receiving end.

For desktop this should basically have no impact (maybe impacts tab
warming, but if we wanted we could set the priority hint from the tab
switcher the same way we set renderLayers), but Fenix always has
renderLayers as true, effectively, so we were never de-prioritizing the
background tab processes.

So if orientation controller delegate isn't set, we should throw
`NotSupportedError`. But, actually, we throws `AbortError`, so this isn't
correct.
To return any DOM error from platform implementation of
`screen.orientation.lock`, I would like to change return value to
`GenericPromise`'s.

Make the ScreenOrientation part of the screen struct, as it should. Stop
using HAL to propagate just screen orientation updates, use the more
general screen manager.
Instead of HAL observers, add a simple observer service notification,
and clean a bunch of the code.
This will simplify bug 1754802 a bit, and is generally simpler.
Shouldn't change behavior. I've tested the events and some common
orientation locking use cases like Youtube, and they behave the same.

IPC's promise returns resolved promise when IPC connection is successful. So
even if platform implementations such as android returns rejected promise, it
is converted to resolved promise by SandboxHal.cpp unfortunately.
So we should check return value when RecvLockScreenOrientation returns false.

Previously, the screenOrientation.lock API was for Fennec and not supported for Fenix and multi-process use. The overall idea is to now allow apps to use the API through a delegate and make asynchronous calls to LockDeviceOrientation. This required replacing the existing code that returned a default false bool to calls that perform the requested orientation change and instead return a promise that contained either an allow or deny value.
Returning a promise instead of a bool involved changing the API calls from the C++ side to Java. The new general control flow of screenOrientation lock follows: an app calls C++ ScreenOrientation.lock() which eventually dispatches LockOrientationTask to resolve the pending orientation promise. Hal.cpp sends an IPC call to the content process and RecvLockScreenOrientation retrieves the current instance of geckoRuntime and calls the java side LockScreenOrientation. Apps must create a delegate and override onOrientationLock to set the requested orientation. In geckoview's testing, this is done with the android API setRequestedOrientation. Once a device orientation change has been triggered, native OnOrientationChange calls to NotifyScreenConfigurationChange, which notifies all observers and dispatches a change event to resolve the pending orientation promise.
Testing:
I used a demo on the GeckoView Example (https://usefulangle.com/demos/105/screen.html) to test locking to landscape orientation. This required a change to the GVE to show the app from recreating the whole thing on orientation change. In the example AndroidManifest xml file, `orientation` prevents restart when orientation changes.
The Junit/Kotlin tests were to verify that the expected orientation delegate was called with the expected new orientation value, in an orientation change, if the new orientation was the same as the current, and if the pre-lock conditions such as being fullscreen were not met.
A static preference `dom.screenorientation.allow-lock` was added to the dom group, since it affects the ui dom) and is currently turned off. C++ can access it through its mirrored variable dom_screenorientation_allow_lock (same name but with underscores). The junit tests turn the preference on and test the lock feature.

As far as I can see, all this does is protect the user from
running some useless code if they manually enable the priority
manager using a pref on an OS that doesn't support it. The
upside of allowing this is that it makes it possible to debug
the priority manager on OSX and Linux with just a pref flip.

This moves parts of IPCMessageUtils.h to two new header files and adapts
the include directives as necessary. The new header files are:
- EnumSerializer.h, which defines the templates for enum serializers
- IPCMessageUtilsSpecializations.h, which defines template specializations
of ParamTraits with extra dependencies (building upon both IPCMessageUtils.h
and EnumSerializer.h)
This should minimize the dependencies pulled in by every consumer of

Allow-list all Python code in tree for use with the black linter, and re-format all code in-tree accordingly.
To produce this patch I did all of the following:
1. Make changes to tools/lint/black.yml to remove include: stanza and update list of source extensions.
2. Run ./mach lint --linter black --fix
3. Make some ad-hoc manual updates to python/mozbuild/mozbuild/test/configure/test_configure.py -- it has some hard-coded line numbers that the reformat breaks.
4. Make some ad-hoc manual updates to `testing/marionette/client/setup.py`, `testing/marionette/harness/setup.py`, and `testing/firefox-ui/harness/setup.py`, which have hard-coded regexes that break after the reformat.
5. Add a set of exclusions to black.yml. These will be deleted in a follow-up bug (1672023).
