We pass 8.3 names to NSS to avoid non-ASCII characters because NSS still
depends on the system code page (although this workaround is not effective on
East-Asian locales).
We don't have to use 8.3 names to NSS for SQLite db paths because SQLite
always use UTF-8 for file names.

Add a PlacesPReviews.jsm module that offers an alternative long term storage of
thumbnails or images. Previews are stored using md5 hash of the page url, in WebP format.
Removals happen using the moz_previews_tombstones table, orphans removal happens
on Places weekly maintenance.
The same moz-page-thumb: protocol that is currently used for volatile thumbnails,
can be used with Places previews, by using "places-previews" as host.
All the feature is behind the places.previews.enabled pref, not enabled yet.

Acording to crash reports, obsfucating the NSS DB locations did not help, so
this patch un-does the changes and un-migrates any migrated DB locations.

Some crash reports appear to be indicating that initializing NSS' certificate
and key databases is taking on the order of minutes in some cases, which is
unexpected. One hypothesis is that third-party software is opening these DBs at
the same time that NSS is operating on them, causing contention and thus
slowness. This patch experimentally (in Nightly only) renames these DBs in the
hopes that third-party software might not recognize them as the DBs it's
looking for, and will thus leave them alone.
