Currently the Gecko Profiler defines a moderate amount of stuff when
MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER is undefined. It also #includes various headers, including
JS ones. This is making it difficult to separate Gecko's media stack for
inclusion in Servo.
This patch greatly simplifies how things are exposed. The starting point is:
- GeckoProfiler.h can be #included unconditionally;
- everything else from the profiler must be guarded by MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER.
In practice this introduces way too many #ifdefs, so the patch loosens it by
adding no-op macros for a number of the most common operations.
The net result is that #ifdefs and macros are used a bit more, but almost
nothing is exposed in non-MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER builds (including
ProfilerMarkerPayload.h and GeckoProfiler.h), and understanding what is exposed
is much simpler than before.
Note also that in BHR, ThreadStackHelper is now entirely absent in
non-MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER builds.
XPCOM's string API doesn't have the notion of a "null string". But it does have
the notion of a "void string" (or "voided string"), and that's what these
functions are returning. So the names should reflect that.

Because we want to remove nsAdoptingString. We have other variants that don't
use nsAdoptingString, which can be used instead. There are three basic
patterns.
1. The easiest case is when we don't check for success.
> nsAdoptingString s = Preferences::GetString("foo");
> foo(s);
becomes:
> nsAutoString s;
> Preferences::GetString("foo", s);
> foo(s);
2. The next case is when we check if the result is empty.
> nsAdoptingString s = Preferences::GetString("foo");
> if (s.IsEmpty()) { ... }
becomes:
> nsAutoString s;
> Preferences::GetString("foo", s);
> if (s.IsEmpty()) { ... }
3. The final case is when we null check the result.
> nsAdoptingString s = Preferences::GetString("foo");
> if (s) { ... }
becomes:
> nsAutoString s;
> nsresult rv = Preferences::GetString("foo", s);
> if (NS_SUCCEEDED(rv)) { ... }
The patch also avoids some UTF8/UTF16 conversions in a few places.

This patch reduces the differences between builds where the profiler is enabled
and those where the profiler is disabled. It does this by removing numerous
MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER checks.
These changes have the following consequences.
- Various functions and classes are now defined in all builds, and so can be
used unconditionally: profiler_add_marker(), profiler_set_js_context(),
profiler_clear_js_context(), profiler_get_pseudo_stack(), AutoProfilerLabel.
(They are effectively no-ops in non-profiler builds, of course.)
- The no-op versions of PROFILER_* are now gone. The remaining versions are
almost no-ops when the profiler isn't built.

For the Quatum DOM project, it's better to work in terms of event targets than
threads. This patch converts DOM code to operate on event targets rather than
threads, when possible.

Trackers use navigator.hardwareConcurrency as yet another source of entropy to fingerprint users. The Firefox Hardware Report says 70% of Firefox users have exactly 2 cores. When the privacy.resistFingerprinting pref is set, we want to blend into the crowd so spoof navigator.hardwareConcurrency = 2 to reduce user uniqueness. This pref was added in bug 1345322 for the Tor uplift project.

To run JS in separate cooperative threads, we need to split up per-thread state
from per-runtime state. This patch does that for XPConnect.
