The patch also adds the CHECK_EVENT_SIZEOF macro which checks that the
_EVENT_SIZEOF_* constants have the right values.

We get the following warnings with clang.
> ipc/chromium/src/base/time_posix.cc:103:57: error: overflow in expression; result is 0 with type 'long' [-Werror,-Winteger-overflow]
> ipc/chromium/src/base/time_posix.cc:106:58: error: overflow in expression; result is -1000 with type 'long' [-Werror,-Winteger-overflow]
This is a genuine bug. The upstream code in Chromium has changed (commit
2a278516943eee02e0206506a4b907fc0b55f27b) and this patch changes our code to be
similar. I did tests and confirmed that instead of getting 0 or -1 for
|milliseconds|, we now get -2147483648000 or 2147483647999, which is much
better.

The code for packing and unpacking IPC messages does currently not
output detailed error message. This patch adds macros that display
information about the failed operation and arguments. The overhead
of the macros is small and the fast path can be inlined.
The patch removes 455 occurrences of FAIL_ON_WARNINGS from moz.build files, and
adds 78 instances of ALLOW_COMPILER_WARNINGS. About half of those 78 are in
code we control and which should be removable with a little effort.

When the parent process has trouble deserializing an IPC message from the content
process, it originally killed that content process. This doesn't result in us
creating a crash report (and doing so is difficult if the FatalError is hit
off main thread). We now crash the parent process if we hit such a FatalError
in the parent process. This will hopefully give us an idea of how frequent
these FatalErrors are, since up until now we've been getting no crash data
for them.

This is motivated by three separate but related problems:
1. Our concept of recursion depth is broken for things that run from AfterProcessNextEvent observers (e.g. Promises). We decrement the recursionDepth counter before firing observers, so a Promise callback running at the lowest event loop depth has a recursion depth of 0 (whereas a regular nsIRunnable would be 1). This is a problem because it's impossible to distinguish a Promise running after a sync XHR's onreadystatechange handler from a top-level event (since the former runs with depth 2 - 1 = 1, and the latter runs with just 1).
2. The nsIThreadObserver mechanism that is used by a lot of code to run "after" the current event is a poor fit for anything that runs script. First, the order the observers fire in is the order they were added, not anything fixed by spec. Additionally, running script can cause the event loop to spin, which is a big source of pain here (bholley has some nasty bug caused by this).
3. We run Promises from different points in the code for workers and main thread. The latter runs from XPConnect's nsIThreadObserver callbacks, while the former runs from a hardcoded call to run Promises in the worker event loop. What workers do is particularly problematic because it means we can't get the right recursion depth no matter what we do to nsThread.
The solve this, this patch does the following:
1. Consolidate some handling of microtasks and all handling of stable state from appshell and WorkerPrivate into CycleCollectedJSRuntime.
2. Make the recursionDepth counter only available to CycleCollectedJSRuntime (and its consumers) and remove it from the nsIThreadInternal and nsIThreadObserver APIs.
3. Adjust the recursionDepth counter so that microtasks run with the recursionDepth of the task they are associated with.
4. Introduce the concept of metastable state to replace appshell's RunBeforeNextEvent. Metastable state is reached after every microtask or task is completed. This provides the semantics that bent and I want for IndexedDB, where transactions autocommit at the end of a microtask and do not "spill" from one microtask into a subsequent microtask. This differs from appshell's RunBeforeNextEvent in two ways:
a) It fires between microtasks, which was the motivation for starting this.
b) It no longer ensures that we're at the same event loop depth in the native event queue. bent decided we don't care about this.
5. Reorder stable state to happen after microtasks such as Promises, per HTML. Right now we call the regular thread observers, including appshell, before the main thread observer (XPConnect), so stable state tasks happen before microtasks.
