OCSP requests cannot be performed on the main thread. If we were to wait for a
response from the network, we would be blocking the main thread for an
unnaceptably long time. If we were to spin the event loop while waiting (which
is what we do currently), other parts of the code that assume this will never
happen (which is essentially all of them) can break.
As of bug 867473, no certificate verification happens on the main thread, so no
OCSP requests happen on the main thread. Given this, we can go ahead and
prohibit such requests.
Incidentally, this gives us an opportunity to improve the current OCSP
implementation, which has a few drawbacks (the largest of which is that it's
unclear that its ownership model is implemented correctly).
This also removes OCSP GET support. Due to recent OCSP server implementations
(namely, the ability to cache OCSP POST request responses), OCSP GET is not a
compelling technology to pursue. Furthermore, continued support presents a
maintenance burden.

This adds another preference (DistrustSymantecRootsRegardlessOfDate == 2) that
stops permitting certificates issued after 1 June 2016, and updates the test to
check it.

Bug 1372694 added a firefox-appdir line to PSM's xpcshell.ini. It turns out this
breaks running these tests locally because utilities like BadCertServer can't be
found. I looks like the change isn't necessary, so the simplest thing to do
would be to just remove the addition.

This also removes any redundant Ci.nsISupports elements in the interface

(This also fixes Bug 879740 and Bug 1204543.)
build/pgo/certs contains an NSS database set that has a bunch of hand-generated
certificates, and many of these hand-generated certificates are specifically
depended upon for a variety of unit tests. This patch changes all of these to
use the "pycert.py" and "pykey.py" utilities that produce deterministic keys
and certificates.
The naming convention here is new, and defined in the README. It is based on
the mochitest runtest.py naming convention that imports .ca and .client
PEM-encoded certificates.
Unfortunately, the updates to build/pgo/genpgocert.py to generate these files
depends on OpenSSL in order to produce PKCS12 archives for pk11tool to import
into NSS. This could be done with pure-NSS tooling, but it'd require some new
command line functionality, which is out-of-scope for this change.
Note that build/pgo/genpgocert.py no longer takes arguments when run. It's not
run automatically anywhere that I can see, but could (reasonably) be, now.

This patch uses the shared memory name prefixes introduced in bug 1447867
to prevent access to /dev/shm files of other applications or other
processes within the same browser instance.
When a shared memory implementation that doesn't use shm_open is available
(specifically, the memfd_create support to be added in bug 1440203),
/dev/shm access is completely denied.

These functions cause main-thread certificate verifications, which is bad for
performance. In general, nsIX509CertDB.asyncVerifyCertAtTime should be used
instead.

This patch goes through and changes a bunch of places in our tree which mention
this bug to use the new feature, making the methods more strongly typed.
There are probably more places in tree which could be changed, but I didn't try
to find them.
