This is the start of an actor which will be automatically instantiated in the
parent and each content process which can be used to route most process-level
IPC traffic needed by the extensions framework. It should allow the extensions
framework to keep its IPC glue close to the code that uses it, and simplify
matters for child-side code which needs to run in both parent and content
processes.

Note that this patch only transforms the use of the nsDataHashtable type alias
to a directly equivalent use of nsTHashMap. It does not change the specification
of the hash key type to make use of the key class deduction that nsTHashMap
allows for in some cases. That can be done in a separate step, but requires more
attention.

We enable compilation of FOG/Glean on _all_ platforms.
We disable Glean initialization and metric recording on Android (GeckoView) by respecting MOZ_GLEAN_ANDROID.
This way GeckoView just works, consumers don't need to think about it (except in tests, these need to be disabled for Android builds).
Stubbing out the metric implementations will happen in the commits after
this one.

The name RemotenessChangeState uses same the convention as the related methods, even though there might
not be a remoteness change happening, only a browsing context switch. But the naming
inconsistency exists there even without any bfcache work.
RemotenessChangeState will be renamed to RemotenessChangeOptions in a followup.

When there is two-level nested iframe, like, a.com contains an iframe b.com,
and b.com contains an iframe c.com, when script in c.com calls window.focus()
to get the focus, we need to adjust the activeElement in a.com and b.com.
Currently, it needs to bounce IPC twice to make a.com get updated. This patch
tries to make a.com could be updated sooner, so when parent process recive the
adjustWindowFocus IPC from process of c.com, it will notify process of b.com
and a.com at the same time.

This patch wants to solve several quirks around the shutdown terminator.
- Use the same shutdown phase definitions in AppShutdown and nsTerminator. This touches quite a few files.
- Ensure that the terminator phase shift is handled before any shutdown observer notifications are sent and reduce its heartbeat duration.
- Add missing phases to the shutdown telemetry.
Please note that this changes the unit of "tick" to 100ms rather than 1s.
As a side effect, we also remove the obsolete "shutdown-persist" context.
While the existing test coverage continues to prove the most important functions, we acknowledge the wish for better test coverage with [[ https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1693966 | bug 1693966 ]].

This makes the naming more consistent with other functions called
Insert and/or Update. Also, it removes the ambiguity whether
Put expects that an entry already exists or not, in particular because
it differed from nsTHashtable::PutEntry in that regard.

This passes around the "are we external" bit of load information a bunch,
such that the external protocol handling code has access to it.
In this bug and bug 1667468, I think ideally I would have used a check
if we're the OS default for a given protocol before continuing. However,
this information is currently unavailable on Linux (bug 1599713), and
worse, I believe is likely to remain unavailable in flatpak and other
such restricted environments (cf. bug 1618094 - we aren't able to find
out anything about protocol handlers from the OS).
So instead, we prompt the user if we are about to open a link passed
to us externally. There is a small chance this will be Breaking People's
Workflows, where I don't know whether anyone relies on Firefox happily
passing these URIs along to the relevant application (more convenient
than doing all the registry/API work yourself in scripts!) or anything
like that. To help with that, there's a pref,
`network.protocol-handler.prompt-from-external`, that can be created and
set to false to avoid prompting in this case.

There are no code changes, only #include changes.
It was a fairly mechanical process: Search for all "AUTO_PROFILER_LABEL", and in each file, if only labels are used, convert "GeckoProfiler.h" into "ProfilerLabels.h" (or just add that last one where needed).
In some files, there were also some marker calls but no other profiler-related calls, in these cases "GeckoProfiler.h" was replaced with both "ProfilerLabels.h" and "ProfilerMarkers.h", which still helps in reducing the use of the all-encompassing "GeckoProfiler.h".

Syncing the container FeaturePolicy across BrowsingContext is actually
a bit more heavy-handed than necessary. We only ever need a container
FeaturePolicy when inheriting a FeaturePolicy in exactly the document
the container contains. Not every process that the tree the container
is a part of. So instead of storing a FeaturePolicy in a synced field,
we manually send it to the correct WindowGlobalChild (which
corresponds to a document) and retrieve it from there.

We can launch the RDD process early now that it is a fully asynchronous process and doesn't block anything.
This will allow to retrieve the decoding capabilities of the RDD process right away.
Ideally, we should have been able to start the RDD process at the same time as the GPU process; however setting up the RDD sandbox is dependent of having mozilla::SandboxBroker::GeckoDependentInitialize() called first ; and it is called in the most awkward of places; so finding a place suitable for all platforms gets affected.
For now we will ensure it's been started around the time the first content process is started.

This avoids us doing the full work of ExtractData every time a new content
process is created. That work is probably not super expensive, but without
this caching it does trip up

I think there could be still other issues with persist handling (or at least it could be simplified),
but this should be pretty much the minimal patch to fix the issue when
about:newtab url is changed to about:blank (without a redirect, but magical about: handling).
So we need to check persisted handling later than currently.
I'd prefer to land something like this first and then consider if there are better ways to handle
both about: url changes and proper redirects.

The main-thread requirements for DXVA appear to have been needed when we initialized a crash guard. We now only run DXVA in the GPU and RDD processes, which don't support crash guards. This removes the main thread dispatch and the crashguard code, and enforces that we're in the GPU/RDD process to init DXVA.
This also removes the DLL blocklist code. This was disabled via pref when in the GPU process, which should be the majority of the time. In rare cases we would have been running DXVA in the RDD process (on older win7 when the GPU process isn't available). In these cases we can just do the same as the GPU process, allowing crashes and recovering from them (and disabling DXVA).

This was being called every time we created a ContentParent, which meant
that we'd get races with non-main-thread logging in the parent
process. This patch fixes it by only calling it once during process
startup.
The original goal was to avoid making logging noisier with process
information when e10s was not enabled, but given that e10s is the default
now, that is no longer relevant.

The guess in comment 3 is basically right, here's the relevant bits that
happen in that trace in order:
[content] nsFrameLoaderOwner::ChangeRemotenessCommon:
frame becomes remote for the content process.
[parent] WindowGlobalParent::SendMakeFrameLocal (mIsDocumentLoad=true)
[content] ContentChild::SendCloneDocumentTreeInto
[parent] ContentParent::RecvCloneDocumentTreeInto
[content] WindowGlobalChild::RecvMakeFrameLocal
So basically the source frame we're cloning is mid-switch-to-local:
local already from the parent process POV, but still remote for the
child.
I think ignoring the clone in this case is fine (which will make the
print iframe just about:blank).
I've decided it to handle it in ChangeRemoteness but I could also handle
it in RecvCloneDocumentTreeInto with a check like
if (cp->GetRemoteType() == GetRemoteType())
or such I think. Let me know if you'd prefer that.
