To mitigate the delay that a new content process startup might cause, when the
browser reaches a non-busy state we attempt to prelaunch an empty content process
in the background that can be grabbed and used the next time we need one. This patch
enables the preallocated process manager by default and attempts to fix all the
issues that prevented us doing this sooner.
When sending the shutdown ping we launched the pingsender executable via
PR_CreateProcessDetached() which on both Linux and MacOS X would fork()
gecko's main process and then exec() the pingsender executable. On MacOS X
this seemed to trigger a race with the mozalloc shutdown procedure within the
forked process. This patch changes the telemetry logic to use nsIProcess
instead which relies on posix_spawnp() to launch the new executable making it
immune to issues related to mozalloc's shutdown.
Since we don't need C++ code anymore to run the pingsender the runPingSender()
method is also moved to TelemtrySend.

In order to rewrite the Gecko Profiler add-on as a WebExtension,
we need an API for the profiler which allows us to control the
nsIProfiler, and symbolicate the stacks that it provides. This
is the implementation of the simpler parts of that API.
TODO:
- Support profiling of remote targets through a new devtools
API.
- Support the dump_syms breakpad code which was asm.js in the
old extension by directly calling into native code.
- Figure out a faster way to send the large volume of data from
getSymbols all the way from our extension down to the content
process and then into the page's context.

Note that the UITour library can still show a panel in the event that we want to
promote the feature that way.

This rolls browser.tabs.animate, browser.fullscreen.animate, and
alerts.disableSlidingEffect into a single pref; if any of these are disabled,
we'll disable the new pref too (toolkit.cosmeticAnimations.enabled). Most
future animations will also be subject to this pref.

Screenshots is a system add-on imported from https://github.com/mozilla-services/screenshots/.
This is the initial build system patch for building screenshots. ESLint is ignored since Screenshots currently use their own version (this may change in the future).

There's quite a few changes in here. At a high level, all we're trying to do
is to replace the old update popup with a less intrusive and more modern
doorhanger (set of doorhangers) for various update failure conditions.

This patch includes:
- (By Yoric) Don't collect/save the session when the user is idle;r=mdeboer
- Add a test for the behavior of state writing in idle/active mode
When the user is not actively using the computer, webpages may still
perform changes that require (re)writing to sessionstore, e.g. updating
Session Cookies or DOM Session Storage, or refreshing, etc. Before
this patch, a single active page can require us to
recollect/serialize/write the entire Session Restore file every 15
seconds even when the user is not in front of the computer.
We expect that, when the user is not in front of the computer, changes
are not critical and don't need to be saved as often. We now adopt the
following strategy:
- when the user has been away for (by default) 15 seconds, finish any
pending collect/write, then increase the collect/write buffering
delay to (by default) 1h
- when the user returns, reschedule any pending 1h collect/write as a
(by default) 15 seconds collect/write, then proceed with (by
default) 15 seconds collect/write delays.
