This patch removes support for mozapp iframes, leaving support for
mozbrowser iframes intact. Some of the code has been rewritten in order
to phrase things in terms of mozbrowser only, as opposed to mozbrowser
or app. In some places, code that was only useful with apps has been
completely removed, so that the APIs consumed can also be removed. In
some places where the notion of appId was bleeding out of this API, now
we use NO_APP_ID. Other notions of appId which were restricted to this
API have been removed.

This is meant as a temporary stopgap until we can stop using origin attributes
to store add-on IDs.

This patch allows specifying an OriginAttributes when creating a sandbox
using Components.utils.Sandbox() by specifying an originAttributes
member on the options dictionary.
If an OA is specified in this way, it is used for creating codebase
principals from the string arguments passed to the function. Otherwise,
if one or more principals are passed in the array argument to Sandbox(),
the OA of the principal(s) is used to construct codebase principals from
the strings inside the array. In this case, we check to make sure that
all of the passed principals have the same OA, otherwise we'll throw an
exception.
In case no explicit OA is specified and no principals are passed in the
array argument, we create the codebase principals using a default OA.
Add an origin attribute called 'firstPartyDomain'.
This value will be extracted from the URL bar.
And the purpose of this attribute is used to isolate the data-jars.

The idea is like a superset of 'reject third party cookies', but not
only apply for cookies, it also applies to all data-jars like localStorage,
indexedDB and so on.
So basically an iframe will have its own data-jar, and this data-jar is
isolated by the URL from URL bar, for instance, an iframe
https://facebook.com inside https://cnn.com won't share data-jar with
the iframe (https://facebook.com) in https://bbc.com

The new name makes the sense of the condition much clearer. E.g. compare:
NS_WARN_IF_FALSE(!rv.Failed());
with:
NS_WARNING_ASSERTION(!rv.Failed());
The new name also makes it clearer that it only has effect in debug builds,
because that's standard for assertions.
