Since |T*| converts into |const T*|, if we want to rewrite code such as:
void DoSomething(const T*, size_t);
void DoSomethingElse(T* x, size_t len)
{
...
DoSomething(x, len);
}
to use ranges:
void DoSomething(Range<const T>);
void DoSomethingElse(Range<T> x)
{
...
DoSomething(x);
}
we need to ensure this conversion works. gsl::span<T> already provides
something like this as well.
We needed this polyfill for <initializer_list> when some of our C++
standard libraries did not support said header. They all do now, so the
polyfill is redundant.
With this change, we could share this EnumTypeTraits between files easily.

These methods allow us to move some buffers out of a pickle with minimum
copying. It's useful when the IPC deserialized type uses BufferList to
store data and we want to take the buffers from IPC directly.
Borrowing is not suitable to use for IPC to hand out data because we
often want to store the data somewhere for processing after IPC has
released the underlying buffers.

This removes the unnecessary setting of c-basic-offset from all
python-mode files.
This was automatically generated using
perl -pi -e 's/; *c-basic-offset: *[0-9]+//'
... on the affected files.
The bulk of these files are moz.build files but there a few others as
well.

This patch implements mozilla::NotNull, which is similar but not identicial to
gsl::not_null.
The current draft(?) implementation of gsl::not_null is at
https://github.com/Microsoft/GSL/blob/master/include/gsl.h.
The main difference is that not_null allows implicit conversion from T to
not_null<T>. In contrast, NotNull only allows explicit conversion from T to
NotNull<T> via WrapNotNull().
The rationale for this is that when converting from a less-constrained type to
a more constrained type, implicit conversion is undesirable. For example, if I
changed a function f from this:
f(int* aPtr);
to this:
f(gsl::not_null<int*> aPtr);
no call sites would have to be modified. But if I changed it to this:
f(mozilla::NotNull<int*> aPtr);
call sites *would* need to be modified. This is a good thing! It forces the
author to audit the call sites for non-nullness, and encourages them to
back-propagate NotNull throughout the code.
The other difference between not_null and NotNull is that not_null disables
pointer arithmetic, which means it cannot be used with array pointers. I have
not implemented this restriction for NotNull because it seems arbitrary and
unnecessary.
