We know that some GV installations (particularly but not exlcusively Focus) are
failing to load `libxul.so` during early Gecko bootstrapping. Unfortunately
a boolean pass/fail result is not giving us sufficient information to be able to
properly troubleshoot this problem.
This patch adds `mozilla::Result`-based return values to `XPCOMGlueLoad` and
`GetBootstrap` in an effort to produce more actionable information about these
failures.
We include either a `nsresult` or, if the failure is rooted in a dynamic linker
failure, appropriate platform-specific error information:
* On Unix-based platforms, a `UniqueFreePtr<char>` containing the string from `dlerror(3)`;
* On Windows, the Win32 `DWORD` error code from `GetLastError()`.
For non-Android platforms, I updated them to handle the new return type, but
otherwise did not make any further changes.
For Android, we include the error information in the message string that we pass
into the Java `Exception` that is subsequently thrown.

Allow-list all Python code in tree for use with the black linter, and re-format all code in-tree accordingly.
To produce this patch I did all of the following:
1. Make changes to tools/lint/black.yml to remove include: stanza and update list of source extensions.
2. Run ./mach lint --linter black --fix
3. Make some ad-hoc manual updates to python/mozbuild/mozbuild/test/configure/test_configure.py -- it has some hard-coded line numbers that the reformat breaks.
4. Make some ad-hoc manual updates to `testing/marionette/client/setup.py`, `testing/marionette/harness/setup.py`, and `testing/firefox-ui/harness/setup.py`, which have hard-coded regexes that break after the reformat.
5. Add a set of exclusions to black.yml. These will be deleted in a follow-up bug (1672023).

In the initial patches for bug 1656526, mhowell noticed that for startups which
take a very long time, if the user interacts with the skeleton UI window, the OS
will flag us as not responsive, which could be a poorer user experience than
seeing nothing. Since our UI is designed to look non-interactive anyway, we
assume that a better experience would be to simply squash the not responsive
response from the OS by trivially processing native events. It's not perfect in,
say, the event that startup is hung for some reason, but it's arguably preferable
to our old model of startup being hung, which was just nothing being displayed at
all.

Our old approach was reading this into a region of unexecutable memory,
meaning when we actually loaded the library it needed to be loaded into
executable memory. This fixes that. I suspect that any gains we were

Consequently, this removes:
- MOZ_LIBPRIO, which is now always enabled.
- non_msvc_compiler, which is now always true.
- The cl.py wrapper, since it's not used anymore.
- CL_INCLUDES_PREFIX, which was only used for the cl.py wrapper.
- NONASCII, which was only there to ensure CL_INCLUDES_PREFIX still
worked in non-ASCII cases.
This however keeps a large part of detecting and configuring for MSVC,
because we still do need it for at least headers, libraries, and midl.

Returning an UniquePtr, will remove std::move().
Also will `return s` instead of `return nullptr` when `(!s)`, to avoid extra construction which could also prevent elision (not entirely sure, but it's at least not worse!); and it's clearer that the two `return`s return the same already-constructed on-stack object.

Correctness improvements:
* UTF errors are handled safely per spec instead of dangerously truncating
strings.
* There are fewer converter implementations.
Performance improvements:
* The old code did exact buffer length math, which meant doing UTF math twice
on each input string (once for length calculation and another time for
conversion). Exact length math is more complicated when handling errors
properly, which the old code didn't do. The new code does UTF math on the
string content only once (when converting) but risks allocating more than
once. There are heuristics in place to lower the probability of
reallocation in cases where the double math avoidance isn't enough of a
saving to absorb an allocation and memcpy.
* Previously, in UTF-16 <-> UTF-8 conversions, an ASCII prefix was optimized
but a single non-ASCII code point pessimized the rest of the string. The
new code tries to get back on the fast ASCII path.
* UTF-16 to Latin1 conversion guarantees less about handling of out-of-range
input to eliminate an operation from the inner loop on x86/x86_64.
* When assigning to a pre-existing string, the new code tries to reuse the
old buffer instead of first releasing the old buffer and then allocating a
new one.
* When reallocating from the new code, the memcpy covers only the data that
is part of the logical length of the old string instead of memcpying the
whole capacity. (For old callers old excess memcpy behavior is preserved
due to bogus callers. See bug 1472113.)
* UTF-8 strings in XPConnect that are in the Latin1 range are passed to
SpiderMonkey as Latin1.
New features:
* Conversion between UTF-8 and Latin1 is added in order to enable faster
future interop between Rust code (or otherwise UTF-8-using code) and text
node and SpiderMonkey code that uses Latin1.

The std::nothrow variant of operator new is effectively a fallible
operator new. It is used in third party code.
The duplication with our own fallible operator new is unfortunate, and
we can reduce it by making one an alias of the other.
We keep the fallible library as a dummy on Android because bug 1423802
induces some linking problems.
