Manual changes to make all refcounted types be marked as `nullable` after the
changes in part 1a. This was done without any investigation into whether the
actual types want to be nullable, in order to avoid code changes.

This new method can be used to check if the nsIOutputStream has been
closed without having data available to write. It should avoid blocking
to discover this information.

The biggest set of APIs from ns[T]StringObsolete which are still heavily used
are the string searching APIs. It appears the intention was for these to be
replaced by the `FindInReadable` APIs, however that doesn't appear to have
happened.
In addition, the APIs have some quirks around their handling of mixed character
widths. These APIs generally supported both narrow strings and the native
string type, probably because char16_t string literals weren't available until
c++11. Finally they also used easy-to-confuse unlabeled boolean and integer
optional arguments to control behaviour.
These patches do the following major changes to the searching APIs:
1. The ASCII case-insensitive search method was split out as
LowerCaseFindASCII, rather than using a boolean. This should be less
error-prone and more explicit, and allows the method to continue to use
narrow string literals for all string types (as only ASCII is supported).
2. The other [R]Find methods were restricted to only support arguments with
matching character types. I considered adding a FindASCII method which would
use narrow string literals for both wide and narrow strings but it would've
been the same amount of work as changing all of the literals to unicode
literals.
This ends up being the bulk of the changes in the patch.
3. All find methods were re-implemented using std::basic_string_view's find
algorithm or stl algorithms to reduce code complexity, and avoid the need to
carry around the logic from nsStringObsolete.cpp.
4. The implementations were moved to nsTStringRepr.cpp.
5. An overload of Find was added to try to catch callers which previously
called `Find(..., false)` or `Find(..., true)` to set case-sensitivity, due
to booleans normally implicitly coercing to `index_type`. This should
probably be removed at some point, but may be useful during the transition.

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.

- Move ShouldRFP(char*), ShouldRFP(docshell), ShouldRFP(Document)
below some utility code.
- Now that we know we should check the CookieJarSettings, using
ShouldRFP(nsIPrincipal) is dangerous. We mark it as dangerous
and annotate the existing uses of it.
- At the same time, an nsILoadInfo has the CookieJarSettings we
want to check, so create a ShouldRFP(nsILoadInfo) that checks
it and cascades to the (marked-dangerous-but-not-dangerous-for-
this-call) principal function.
- We also correct a situation where WorkerLoadInfo does not
initialize the shouldRFP member.

CookieJarSettings frequently gets populated in a place
where we have ready access to the Document/Channel it
is being constructed for. This lets us populate the boolean
and pass it into CookieJarSetting's constructor easily.
When it is created for LoadInfo, we need to plumb the URI
through by adding it to LoadInfo::CreateForDocument.

As serializing IPCStream no longer requires a manager or FileDescriptor array,
the arguments are no longer necessary, and can be removed. The AutoIPCStream
helper can also be removed, as managed actors are no longer used for
serialization, so a delayed start callback is not necessary.
The delayed start parameter is also removed from nsIIPCSerializableInputStream
instances, but is still present as `aAllowLazy` on the toplevel serialization
methods.

This interface should no longer be required due to the changes in part 1
limiting the complexity of IPCStream instances and limiting the number of file
descriptors which a single stream can attach to a message.
Removing this interface is necessary to serialize nsIInputStream instances over
arbitrary toplevel protocols and non-protocol IPC in the future.

This gives us various positive benefits, such as using a shared memory ring
buffer for faster communication, not having data streaming being bound to the
thread which transferred the nsIInputStream (which is often the main thread),
and the ability for some backpressure to be applied to data streaming.
After this change, the "delayed start" parameter for IPCStream serialization is
less relevant, as backpressure will serve a similar purpose. It will still be
used to determine whether or not to use RemoteLazyInputStream when serializing
from the parent process.
