Having a full VPATH for the srcdir sometimes causes make to grab the
wrong prerequisite for a rule, in particular if we have a file in the
srcdir and also generate a file of the same name in the objdir. We don't
really need VPATH anymore though, since most of the information comes
from mozbuild, where we can explicitly list the path to the srcdir or
objdir as necessary.

`WindowsErrorResult` is a class to hold either a value or a Windows error
code based on the `Result` template. We also have `LauncherResult` for the
same purpose, which was introduced as a part of the launcher process feature
afterward. The difference is `LauncherResult` holds a filename and line
number along with an error code.
This patch integrates LauncherResult.h into WinHeaderOnlyUtils.h so that we
can use `LauncherResult` more broadly.

All calls to `profiler_add_marker()` (outside of the profilers code) are
now replaced by either:
- `PROFILER_ADD_MARKER(name, categoryPair)`
- `PROFILER_ADD_MARKER_WITH_PAYLOAD(name, categoryPair, TypeOfMarkerPayload,
(payload, ..., arguments))`
This makes all calls consistent, and they won't need to prefix the category pair
with `JS::ProfilingCategoryPair::`.
Also it will make it easier to add (and later remove) internal-profiling
instrumentation (bug 1576550), and to replace heap-allocated payloads with
stack-allocated ones (bug 1576555).

Whereas previously MozDescribeCodeAddress would have handled demangling,
we need to explicitly do that from our new GetFunction method. The string we
generate is now more useful for the profiler to merge -- having dropped the
address in the previous patch, and the file & line number and library in this

While we're at it, try to demangle Rust symbols too.
Ideally we'd add Rust symbol handling to DemangleSymbol in
StackWalk.cpp, but that lives in mozglue, which currently cannot have
any Rust crate dependencies.

Backtraces (that are kept in some marker payloads) are stored in a small
ProfileBuffer, we will need to store that data, which will happen to be inside
a BlockRingBuffer, so BlockRingBuffer needs to be able to (de)serialize itself!
This is done by storing the contents in the active buffer range, and some extra
data, to later reconstruct a BlocksRingBuffer that looks like the original.

Markers and their payloads contain all kinds of objects that we'll need to
serialize into a BlocksRingBuffer (new ProfileBuffer storage).
This patch will add functions to:
- Compute the size needed to store objects,
- Write multiple objects into a BlockRingBuffer entry,
- Read objects back from an entry.
And it will provide a number of useful de/serialization helpers for:
- Trivially-copyable objects,
- Strings of different types,
- Raw pointers (with some safety guards to avoid surprises),
- Tuples (to store multiple sub-objects),
- Spans,
- Maybe (for optional objects),
- Variant.
This should be enough to store most kinds of data. Further specializations
can&will be written as necessary for more complex or obscure types.

The point of the EntryReserver was mainly to have an object that represented a

While mozglue continues to be the correct location for calling the affected
code in this patch, the calls requiring profiler labels will soon be
originating from firefox.exe via the launcher process.
mozglue will be supplying the launcher process with an interface that consists
of what are effectively "OnBeginDllLoad" and "OnEndDllLoad" callback
notifications; obviously an RAII class is not going to be useful for that case.
We still want to keep the RAII stuff around, however, since we still need it

`BlocksRingBuffer` will be used both inside and outside `ProfileBuffer`:
- Inside to serve as `ProfileBuffer`'s main storage for stack traces,
- Outside to allow marker storage even when `ProfileBuffer` is locked during
stack sampling.
`ProfileBuffer` only exists while `ActivePS` is alive, but because of the
potential outside accesses above (due to small races between ProfileBuffer
shutdown, and thread-local IsBeingProfiled() flags), we cannot just do the same
for BlocksRingBuffer, and it must remain alive to gracefully deny these accesses
around the profiler startup and shutdown times.
To accomplish this, `BlocksRingBuffer` may be in different states:
- "In-session", we have a real buffer to write to and read from,
- "Out-of-session", without buffer so reads&writes do nothing.
This is implemented by enclosing the underlying `ModuloBuffer` and the entry
deleter in a `Maybe`, which may be `Nothing` when the profiler is not running
and the `ProfileBuffer`'s `BlocksRingBuffer` is out-of-session.

After some bad experiences, I think EntryReader should be move-only:
- It needs to be moveable so it can be created from a function, and move-
constructed into a Maybe<> if needed.
- It can be passed around as a reference.
Previously, it could be passed by value, but it was too easy to create bugs,
e.g.: A function delegates to a sub-function to read something at the beginning,
then the first function wants to read more past that, but if the reader was
passed by value the first function would not see past what the sub-function did
read.
As a bonus, `mRing` can now be a reference instead of a pointer, and other
members can be const.

This makes it easier to grab all BlocksRingBuffer state variables:
- Range start and end.
- Number of pushed blocks/entries, number of cleared blocks/entries.
The function is thread-safe, and the returned values are consistent with each
other, but they may become stale straight after the function returns (and the
lock is released).
They are still valuable to statistics, and to know how far the range has at
least reached (but may go further soon).

`BaeProfilerMutex` is a concrete mutex based on MutexImpl, which was previously
implemented twice in both platform.h and BlocksRingBuffer.h.
This combined mutex has some DEBUG code (when MOZ_BASE_PROFILER is #defined) to
catch recursive locking, and to assert that the mutex is held (for code that
cannot easily use the "proof of lock" pattern; e.g., going through user-provided
callbacks).
This class needs to be public (because it is used in public headers), but is an
implementation detail, so it is located in a new header
"mozilla/BaseProfilerDetail.h" that will collect `mozilla::baseprofiler::detail`
