part of startup to advance a progress display, per bug 35866.
I did not get the code actually reviewed, but I discussed it, and tested it
for breakage. Other developers must register for the observer before it can
be ascertained whether it performs as advertized.
Added new functions to the registry for reading / writing byte arrays
of binary content and escaping registry keys that contain binary
content. Modified code which reads/writes location of dll or javascript
for components to use new ReadBytesUTF8/WriteBytesUTF8 and which uses
or reads the keys to use EscapeKey and UnescapeKey.

Bug 12817 no Autoreg (in optimized builds) unless xpinstall detects flag indicating install has happened or build number changed, r=dp, a=jar;
Bug 23859 add wstring API to nsIRegistry for profile manager/i18n, r=gayatrib, a=jar;
later in the autoreg cycle.
- teach native component loader about deferred components
- add nsIComponentLoader::registerDeferredComponents
- teach component manager about deferred components
- made nsID::Parse take a |const char *| instead of a simple |char *|.
- move release of XPTI singletons until _after_ shutting down the component
manager to prevent re-initialization during JS component shutdown.
- category manager work: really delete from reg, start on enumeration
- use nsXPIDLCString instead of autoStringFree.
- fix nsRegistry to use allocator properly.
- cleaner memory management in nsFactoryEntry.
- capitalization fixed in nsIComponentLoader.idl
- clean up loader creation logic
- remove/disable lots of DEBUG_shaver noise
- added (disabled) warning about NSGetFactory usage
- move .so and .shlb higher up in the ValidDllExtensions list to marginally
speed up registration.
- added nsDll::GetRegistryLocation API
- properly export nsSupportsArray.h
- capitalization fixes in nsIEnumerator.idl
- added deferral to nsSample.js
to reduce evil in universe.
Added nsIComponentManager::RegisterComponentLoader.
Dead code removal.
Make AutoRegister eagerly created all as-yet-unloaded component loaders and
AutoRegister with them as well.
Removed much #ifdef DEBUG_shaver noise.
Factored ComponentManager to support multiple ComponentLoaders.
Added support for relative paths in registry.
General cleanup.
(Broke detection of changed DLLs; dp is fixing -- thanks!)
