Neil Deakin 9c2e7458ba Bug 1776879, replace text/unicode for clipboard and drag and drop and use text/plain directly, r=edgar,mak,stransky,geckoview-reviewers,extension-reviewers,zombie,m_kato
Most usage is a straight replacement but gtk needs extra changes as it transfers plain text in UTF8 natively and needs to be converted into UTF16, and Windows uses single-byte characters for RTF and CF_HTML formats so we preserve this.
