If mmap failed, we'd leave the memory_ member variable set to MAP_FAILED,
but everything else in this file checks for nullptr (and only nullptr) to
test if the pointer is valid.
Also, this removes the debug assertion that the mmap succeeded, to allow
writing unit tests where we expect it to fail (e.g., for insufficient
permissions).

This allows writing to shared memory and then making it read-only before
sharing it to other processes, such that a malicious sandboxed process
cannot regain write access. This is currently available only in the
low-level base::SharedMemory interface.
The freeze operation exposes the common subset of read-only shared
memory that we can implement on all supported OSes: with some APIs
(POSIX shm_open) we can't revoke writeability from existing capabilies,
while for others (Android ashmem) we *must* revoke it. Thus, we require
that the writeable capability not have been duplicated or shared to
another process, and consume it as part of freezing. Also, because in
some backends need special handling at creation time, freezeability must
be explicitly requested.
In particular, this doesn't allow giving an untrusted process read-only
access to memory that the original process can write.
Note that on MacOS before 10.12 this will use temporary files in order to
avoid an OS security bug that allows regaining write access; those OS
versions are no longer supported by Apple (but are supported by Firefox).

The Unix backend for shared memory needs to keep the mapped size to pass
to munmap, while the Windows backend doesn't. Currently it's reusing the
max_size field, and then zeroing it when it's unmapped, which breaks the
freezing use case. This patch uses a dedicated field for that.

Despite the comment saying not to use the "handle" except as an opaque
identifier, it is being used to pass the handle to other OS APIs. Direct
access to the handle needs to be controlled to make sure freezing is
safe, so this patch replaces that with interfaces that are more explicit
about ownership and lifetime.

FreeBSD's SHM_ANON is useful for the usual case of shared memory, but it
doesn't support freezing. It could be re-added later, but for now it's
simplest to remove it (and use named shm instead) while refactoring.

ipc_message_utils.h defines IPDLParamTraits on windows for some things like
HWND and HANDLE. However, it doesn't directly include windows.h on Windows to
include them. All other usages seem to rely on including base/process.h, which
does include windows.h and adds the appropriate typedefs.

This patch adds two things:
1. An optional fixed_address argument to SharedMemoryBasic::Map, which
is the address to map the shared memory at.
2. A FindFreeAddressSpace function that callers can use to find a
contiguous block of free address space, which can then be used to
determine an address to pass in to Map that is likely to be free.
Patches in bug 1474793 will use these to place the User Agent style
sheets in a shared memory buffer in the parent process at an address
that is also likely to be free in content processes.

Consequently, this removes:
- MOZ_LIBPRIO, which is now always enabled.
- non_msvc_compiler, which is now always true.
- The cl.py wrapper, since it's not used anymore.
- CL_INCLUDES_PREFIX, which was only used for the cl.py wrapper.
- NONASCII, which was only there to ensure CL_INCLUDES_PREFIX still
worked in non-ASCII cases.
This however keeps a large part of detecting and configuring for MSVC,
because we still do need it for at least headers, libraries, and midl.
