b.) Ask the child to perform the check
i.) Do not ask a child if it is the aRequestor
ii.) Do not ask a child if it is of a different item type.

a.) Do not ask parent if it is the aRequestor
4.) If there is a tree owner ask the tree owner to perform the check
a.) Do not ask the tree owner if it is the aRequestor
b.) This should only be done if there is no parent of the same type.
Return the child DocShellTreeItem with the specified name.
name - This is the name of the item that is trying to be found.
aRequestor - This is the object that is requesting the find. This
parameter is used to identify when the child is asking its parent to find
a child with the specific name. The parent uses this parameter to ensure
a resursive state does not occur by not again asking the requestor to find
a shell by the specified name. Inversely the child uses it to ensure it
does not ask its parent to do the search if its parent is the one that
asked it to search. Children also use this to test against the treeOwner;

The owner of the DocShell Tree. This interface will be called upon when
the docshell has things it needs to tell to the owner of the docshell.
Note that docShell tree ownership does not cross tree types. Meaning
setting ownership on a chrome tree does not set ownership on the content
sub-trees. A given tree's boundaries are identified by the type changes.
Trees of different types may be connected, but should not be traversed
for things such as ownership.
Note implementers of this interface should NOT effect the lifetime of the
parent DocShell by holding this reference as it creates a cycle. Owners
when releasing this interface should set the treeOwner to nsnull.
Implementers of this interface are guaranteed that when treeOwner is
set that the poitner is valid without having to addref.
Further note however when others try to get the interface it should be
addref'd before handing it to them.
