brendan%mozilla.org 753070b755 Fixes to use atomic rename(2) if possible in nsLocalFile::MoveTo (33098, r=?),
plus a bunch of other fixes and cleanups:

- Fix comment misstatements of fact in nsIFile.idl, improve style slightly.
- Fix typo in comment in nsILocalFile.idl.
- Avoid gratuitous nsCString and nsXPIDLCString copy-constructions, which
  entail malloc'ing, in nsLocalFileUnix.cpp's CopyTo and GetParent methods.
  But do use nsXPIDLCString instead of raw nsMemory::Alloc/Free.
- Get rid of unnecessary mLL_II2L and mLL_L2II macros, use "prlong.h" API only.
  Also use the LL_* macros consistently in case a Unix lacking long long type
  support wants to use this code.
* BTW, the "Date" methods should be renamed to use "Time" instead -- after all
  PRTime is the type, and traditionally "time" refers to the time-number, a
  scalar independent of one's position on the surface of the earth, while
  "date" refers to a struct full of locale-specific information derived from
  time and some "environment" variables such as DST.  Can we rename these
  nsIFile methods before Mozilla 0.9 / Netscape 6?
- Use CHECK_mPath consistently and first, before any assertions relating to
  arguments (which logically come after the 'this' parameter CHECK_mPath is
  making assertions about).
- Use nsCOMPtr for singly-inheriting implementations of XPCOM interfaces, to
  avoid scary-when-scaled 0-refcnt instances from being handled (these all
  got a ref via QI or equivalent soon enough, but you never know).  This also
  removed some naked deletes.
- Canonize all paths copied into mPath to lack trailing slashes, so we don't
  need to strip trailing slashes elsewhere, in higher-frequency methods (you
  set path less often than you get it or a substring of it).
- ssize_t for strlen return values.
- Since shaver used a function pointer to consolidate creat/mkdir logic, but
  didn't fold the necessary close of the new fd returned by non-failing creat
  into the pointed-at function, I did that.
- AppendRelativePath forbids .. as a component (bounded by / or beginning or
  end of string on either side), not just in the middle of fragment (so that
  foo..bar is not an illegal relative pathname -- it should not be).  BTW,
  what the heck is the difference between NS_ERROR_FILE_UNRECOGNIZED_PATH and
  ...INVALID_PATH?
- SetLeafName was overallocating the new pathname buffer by failing to subtract
  the old leafname's length.
- CopyTo was failing to return an NSRESULT_FOR_ERRNO(), it just called that
  macro on a line by itself -- eek!  It also contained redundant if (newFD
  == nsnull) {...} cleanup code, it did a useless PR_GetFileInfo call, and it
  leaked FDs on read or write error.
- Implemented CopyToFollowingLinks as a forwarded call to CopyTo, Unix does
  not support "copying" a symlink via normal file i/o.  Should we instead
  lstat in CopyTo and if a link is the source of the copy, do readlink and
  then symlink?
- Fixed the readlink method (GetTarget) to null-terminate the link string in
  the out parameter (readlink does not do that for you).
- Lots of little nsnull vs. NULL vs. 0, == and != applied to boolean or null
  literals, white-space, indentation, bracing, comment, and sloppy code order
  (e.g., declaring an initialized variable that's not used till after early
  returns) fixes.  Also invert some return logic so that NS_OK is the normal,
  least indented, final return.
