The -*- file variable lines -*- establish per-file settings that Emacs will
pick up. This patch makes the following changes to those lines (and touches
nothing else):
- Never set the buffer's mode.
Years ago, Emacs did not have a good JavaScript mode, so it made sense
to use Java or C++ mode in .js files. However, Emacs has had js-mode for
years now; it's perfectly serviceable, and is available and enabled by
default in all major Emacs packagings.
Selecting a mode in the -*- file variable line -*- is almost always the
wrong thing to do anyway. It overrides Emacs's default choice, which is
(now) reasonable; and even worse, it overrides settings the user might
have made in their '.emacs' file for that file extension. It's only
useful when there's something specific about that particular file that
makes a particular mode appropriate.
- Correctly propagate settings that establish the correct indentation
level for this file: c-basic-offset and js2-basic-offset should be
js-indent-level. Whatever value they're given should be preserved;
different parts of our tree use different indentation styles.
- We don't use tabs in Mozilla JS code. Always set indent-tabs-mode: nil.
Remove tab-width: settings, at least in files that don't contain tab
characters.
- Remove js2-mode settings that belong in the user's .emacs file, like
js2-skip-preprocessor-directives.
Adds a new method to NetUtil (readInputStreamToString) that will read a string
with or without embedded NULLs from an input stream. Also adds the needed API
on nsIScriptableInputStream to make this happen.

This lets consumers pass a string for a uri, an nsIURI, an nsIFile, or an
nsIChannel to NetUtil.asyncFetch. It's now less code to get file contents
asynchronously that to do so synchronously in JavaScript.

asynchronously and provide the consumer with an input stream upon completion.

extra : rebase_source : bbeffb5669ba0f040773fca5faca28494982ff94
This moves nsISafeOutputStream.idl into xpcom/io and makes nsAStreamCopier
handle nsISafeOutputStream correctly (calling finish instead of close).
