This patch merges nsAtom into nsIAtom. For the moment, both names can be used
interchangeably due to a typedef. The patch also devirtualizes nsIAtom, by
making it not inherit from nsISupports, removing NS_DECL_NSIATOM, and dropping
the use of NS_IMETHOD_. It also removes nsIAtom's IIDs.
These changes trigger knock-on changes throughout the codebase, changing the
types of lots of things as follows.
- nsCOMPtr<nsIAtom> --> RefPtr<nsIAtom>
- nsCOMArray<nsIAtom> --> nsTArray<RefPtr<nsIAtom>>
- Count() --> Length()
- ObjectAt() --> ElementAt()
- AppendObject() --> AppendElement()
- RemoveObjectAt() --> RemoveElementAt()
- ns*Hashtable<nsISupportsHashKey, ...> -->
ns*Hashtable<nsRefPtrHashKey<nsIAtom>, ...>
- nsInterfaceHashtable<T, nsIAtom> --> nsRefPtrHashtable<T, nsIAtom>
- This requires adding a Get() method to nsRefPtrHashtable that it lacks but
nsInterfaceHashtable has.
- nsCOMPtr<nsIMutableArray> --> nsTArray<RefPtr<nsIAtom>>
- nsArrayBase::Create() --> nsTArray()
- GetLength() --> Length()
- do_QueryElementAt() --> operator[]
The patch also has some changes to Rust code that manipulates nsIAtom.
