eliminating the nsIWebShell, nsIWebShellContainer, nsIDocumentLoader
interfaces and clarifying the other docshell-related interfaces.
r=darin, biesi, sr=jst
Revising nsIChannel to allow for overlapped i/o. This consists of three parts:
1. Factoring nsIChannel into a protocol specific part, the nsIChannel, and a socket specific, the nsITransport.
2. Derive the nsIChannel from a nsIRequest.
2. Changes the notification system from necko and the URILoader to pass the nsIRequest interface instead of nsIChannel interface.
This goal stems from wanting to be able to have active AsyncRead and AsyncWrite operations on nsSocketTransport.
This is desired because it would greatly simplify the task of maintaining persistent/reusable socket connections
for FTP, HTTP, and Imap (and potentially other protocols). The problem with the existing nsIChannel interface is
that it does not allow one to selectively suspend just one of the read or write operations while keeping the other active.

+ Added dummy function to all users of nsIWebProgressListener
+ Added new security event sink.
+ Hooked up new event sink to docloader and friends.
+ Fixed memory leaks and crashes in nsSecureBrowserImpl.
+ Added AlertPrompt to nsIPrompt Interface.
+ Enabling xpcom test on unix.
Fixes bug 46872. r=valeski/rpotts
through the web progress interfaces. In order to implement progress, the doc loader now implements
nsIProgressEventSink and receives events directly from the channels.
nsIWebProgressListener.
Right now, the only methods that are hooked up are signaling when the doc loader is busy loading a document and
when it is done loading a document.
