We could do this in HKLM using registry.dat, but that file is difficult to manage.
Instead, we register in HKCU at runtime.
Also, RegCreateKeyTransacted doesn't work in MSIX containers, so we must use RegCreateKeyEx.

Automatically generated path that adds flag `REQUIRES_UNIFIED_BUILD = True` to `moz.build`
when the module governed by the build config file is not buildable outside on the unified environment.
This needs to be done in order to have a hybrid build system that adds the possibility of combing
unified build components with ones that are built outside of the unified eco system.

`mscom::ProcessRuntime` supports multiple instances because Reasons (TM).
To make this happen, we store some information in `mozglue` that enforces
serialization between instances and also informs an instance as to whether
any other instances have successfully completed initialization.
Unfortunately it is possible for us to encounter situations where one instance
manages to *partially* but not *completely* finish initialization. Since our
shared information is currently a simple `bool`, we cannot really capture this
case.
Furthermore, APIs such as `CoInitializeSecurity` will actually fail if called
again after previous activity, so we should guard against multiple invocations
within the same process.
To improve this situation, I'd like to replace the shared `bool` with a typed
enum that can provide finer-grained information as to how far a previous
instance actually managed to get.

This implements Jamie's suggested fixes for a screenreader issue when the
skeleton UI is enabled. Most of the work here is just pulling out pieces from the
files we needed to include in mozglue so that any references to, say, nsString
or other pieces from libxul either no longer exist or are only included when
building libxul. In a few cases this meant creating whole files to house single
functions, which isn't so pretty, but it was the best I could come up with to
get the job done.

* We make `EnsureMTA`'s default constructor `private`, and `ProcessRuntime` a friend.
`ProcessRuntime` calls this to eagerly create the MTA.
* The default constructor uses the new-ish `CoIncrementMTAUsage` to create the
MTA without requiring a dedicated thread (when available). Otherwise we
fall back to the traditional method. In the latter case, we synchronously
wait for the initialization to complete so that we are guaranteed to have
an MTA when we return.
* Some minor refactoring to make it easier to do the sync wait in the
default constructor. I also renamed a couple of things just to make them
more clear.

This patch does the following:
* General cleanup:
* More explicit restrictions of how/when the various constructors are available.
* `InitializeSecurity` is made `static`, since it doesn't really manipulate instance variables.
* We move some logic for resolving `CoInitializeEx` flags into `GetDesiredApartmentType`.
* Addition of `PostInit`:
* This doesn't do anything at the moment, but since I'm already making a bunch
of changes, I wanted to add this too. `PostInit` is a static method that
is invoked once the `ProcessRuntime` is finished initializing, and, when
present, the sandbox is fully enabled.
* We call `EnsureMTA`'s default constructor to eagerly bring up the MTA. This
causes all background threads to implicitly become members of the MTA, which
means that we can eliminate `CoInitializeEx` calls throughout our codebase,
since they're slow and most developers do not have a clear understanding of
what those functions actually do.
* This also simplifies the COM initialization in sandboxed content processes
with Win32K lockdown, since if our main thread is in the implicit MTA, we
can immediately initialize ourselves without needing to punt that work
over to the persistent MTA thread.

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 ]].

* We add a new function to `mscom/Utils.h`: `DiagnosticNameForIID`. Its
purpose is to generate a friendly name for an interface, given an IID.
For special interfaces internal to COM, we add our own descriptive strings.
If the interface does not have a description, we simply convert the IID
to string format using GUIDToString.
* We modify `ProfilerMarkerChannelHook` to include the additional diagnostic
information for IIDs in its markers.
* Since each marker is now differentiated by IID, we remove the restriction
that we only use markers for the outermost COM call. In particular, this
assumption doesn't hold for asynchronous COM calls, so we would be losing
data in the case where an async call was pending while the main thread was
still making COM calls on other interfaces.
* There isn't really an effective way to distinguish between sync and
async calls at the channel hook layer. I'm thinking about how we could
perhaps modify `AsyncInvoker` to help mark these, but it's a bit messy.
I'm going to postpone that to future work.
* Other potential future work is expanding the number of interfaces for which
we have frendly names. I could see us annotating our various COM interfaces
in a way that we could automagically generate human-readable descriptions for
those interfaces.

I realized that calling `mscom::IsProxy` is kind of redundant when we already
need to query for `ICallFactory`.
We still allow `aIsProxy` as an optional constructor argument, but if not
present then we go straight to `QueryInterface(IID_ICallFactory)`.

I need this for some changes I want to make to Win32 file pickers.
* We add an event-driven variant to `mscom::AsyncInvoker`. When the async call
invokes `ISynchronize::Signal`, we post an event to the specified event
target (or implicitly to the main thread).
* For this to work, the async call needs to temporarily retain a reference to
itself, otherwise the async call object is destroyed and the in-flight call
is cancelled. This reference is stored in an "outer runnable" which is
responsible for executing the inner completion runnable, and then dropping
the self-reference.
* We only run the completion runnable upon *successful* initiation of the async
call. If there was a failure, we return that code immediately to the caller.
Failures also clear the reference to the completion runnable.
* If we could not obtain an async interface and must run synchronously, then
we run the completion runnable immediately after a successful synchronous
invocation.

We add new DLL registration code. This is a rather generic function that
permits the following:
* Registering multiple `CLSID`s for the same DLL;
* Registering an optional `AppID`. Registering an `AppID` allows us to use a
`DllSurrogate` to host the DLL out-of-process using Windows' built-in
`dllhost.exe`. I'll be using this feature in a future bug.
* Supporting all available threading modelsl;
* Capable of registering either inproc servers or inproc handlers;
* Using the transaction-based registry API so that we can cleanly rollback
during registration if any part(s) of it fail.
