Right now, a lot of test code relies on side-effects of SpecialPowers being
loaded into frame script globals. In particular:
- It forces permissive COWs from those scopes, which allows frame scripts to
pass objects from those scopes to unprivileged content that they otherwise
wouldn't.
- It imports a bunch of helper modules and WebIDL globals which would
otherwise not be available.
Fortunately, this seems to only impact test code at this point. But there's a
real down-the-road risk of it impacting shipping code, which ends up working
in automation due to the side-effects of SpecialPowers, but failing in real
world use.

DocShells are associated with outer DOM Windows, rather than Documents, so
having the getter on the document is a bit odd to begin with. But it's also
considerably less convenient, since most of the times when we want a docShell
from JS, we're dealing most directly with a window, and have to detour through
the document to get it.

Note that this patch also replaces legacy VK_* with KEY_*, and replaces
synthesizeKey() for inputting some characters with sendString() because
it's better and clearer what it does and it sets shiftKey state properly.

We'll stop dispatching keypress events on web contents for conforming to spec of
UI Events. Some existing tests assumes that keypress events are fired even
when non-printable keys are pressed.
This patch makes them check the pref,
"dom.keyboardevent.keypress.dispatch_non_printable_keys_only_system_group_in_content"
and only listen to keydown event instead of keypress even if the pref is true
and expected key event is not a printable key press.
