After the changes in this bug, about:blank loads triggered by chrome will
finish in a "web" content process, as they have an untrusted null principal
without a precursor. In a few places throughout the codebase, however, we
perform about:blank loads with the explicit expectation that they do not change
processes. This new remoteTypeOverride option allows the intended final process
to be explicitly specified in this situation.
For security & simplicity reasons, this new attribute is limited to only be
usable on system-principal triggered loads of about:blank in toplevel browsing
contexts.

This formed the backbone of the previous process switching codepath, and
shouldn't be necessary anymore thanks to DocumentChannel's new codepath.
This also removes the eager process switching logic from frontend's _loadURI, as
it would rarely be taken, unless an invalid URI was entered, already.

ChildSHistory.legacySHistory isn't valid for content processes when
session history in the parent is enabled. We try to fix this by either
delegating to the parent by IPC or move the implementation partially
or as a whole to the parent.

This API is no longer possible to implement, as it will always try to set the
OriginAttributes on a content BrowsingContext after it has been attached, and JS
can never observe a detached BrowsingContext.
Users of this API are instead changed to perform assertions that
originAttributes have already been set correctly.

This effectively also undoes the change introduced in 3166149f37f1 (bug 1615302),
and makes it so that instead of ignoring the userTyped values, we clear them
out in the parent when doing a process flip before sending them down to
the new child process.
