Revising nsIChannel to allow for overlapped i/o. This consists of three parts:
1. Factoring nsIChannel into a protocol specific part, the nsIChannel, and a socket specific, the nsITransport.
2. Derive the nsIChannel from a nsIRequest.
2. Changes the notification system from necko and the URILoader to pass the nsIRequest interface instead of nsIChannel interface.
This goal stems from wanting to be able to have active AsyncRead and AsyncWrite operations on nsSocketTransport.
This is desired because it would greatly simplify the task of maintaining persistent/reusable socket connections
for FTP, HTTP, and Imap (and potentially other protocols). The problem with the existing nsIChannel interface is
that it does not allow one to selectively suspend just one of the read or write operations while keeping the other active.

Modify the logic to launch external browser (only for target=_content
and target=_blank links). Also add something to DocShellLoadInfo
so that a user of nsDocShell::LoadURI can specify the target desired.
+ Added dummy function to all users of nsIWebProgressListener
+ Added new security event sink.
+ Hooked up new event sink to docloader and friends.
+ Fixed memory leaks and crashes in nsSecureBrowserImpl.
+ Added AlertPrompt to nsIPrompt Interface.
+ Enabling xpcom test on unix.
Fixes bug 46872. r=valeski/rpotts
Right now, nsIPluginManager::PostURL() has parameters for
postHeadersLength and postHeaders. However, nothing is being done with
these parameters. This bug fix utilizes these params for their intended
purpose: to allow the plugin the ability to add HTTP headers to a POST
data stream.
Important assumptions made by this fix:
* postHeadersLength is the correct length for postHeaders.
* postHeaders is a buffer of headers in the form
"HeaderName: HeaderValue\r\n"
each header, including the last, MUST be followed by "\r\n".
To affect this fix I had to modify the following files:
M docshell/base/nsDocShell.cpp
M docshell/base/nsDocShell.h
M docshell/base/nsWebShell.cpp
M modules/plugin/nglsrc/nsPluginViewer.cpp
M docshell/base/nsWebShell.h
M layout/html/base/src/nsObjectFrame.cpp
M modules/plugin/nglsrc/nsIPluginInstanceOwner.h
M modules/plugin/nglsrc/nsPluginHostImpl.cpp
M modules/plugin/nglsrc/nsPluginInstancePeer.cpp
M webshell/public/nsILinkHandler.h
Basically, it involved clearing a path so the headers arguments can make
it down to nsIPluginInstanceOwner::GetURL()'s implementation in
nsObjectFrame.cpp, where an nsIInputStream is made of the headers.
