The idea is to not make consumers think about whether the principal exists or
not when the caller knows for sure that it does.
The substantive changes are in dom/bindings, nsHTMLDocument::SetDesignMode, and
around the CanUseStorage bits. Everything else is pretty mechanical.
This function is an infallible alternative to nsIURI::GetSpec(). It's useful
when it's appropriate to handle a GetSpec() failure with a failure string, e.g.
for log/warning/error messages. It allows code like this:
nsAutoCString spec;
uri->GetSpec(spec);
printf("uri: %s", spec.get());
to be changed to this:
printf("uri: %s", uri->GetSpecOrDefault().get());
This introduces a slight behavioural change. Previously, if GetSpec() failed,
an empty string would be used here. Now, "[nsIURI::GetSpec failed]" will be
produced instead. In most cases this failure string will make for a clearer
log/warning/error message than the empty string.

Bug 1297961 (part 1b) - More GetSpecOrDefault() additions. r=hurley.
I will fold this into part 1 before landing.
In general, using an AutoJSAPI inited with an object is NOT the same as using
AutoSafeJSContext (or AutoJSAPI inited without an object) and then entering the
compartment of the object: the former will report exceptions to the global of
the object as it comes off the stack, while the latter will not. This only
really matters if we have an object from a window or worker global and hence
might fire error events, or report internal stuff to the web console.
The changes to initing with an object made in this bug are OK for the following
reasons:
1) dom/base/Console.cpp: Always clears its exception before coming off the stack.
2) dom/base/nsDOMClassInfo.cpp: Inits with a non-web global.
3) dom/base/nsFrameMessageManager.cpp: Inits with a non-web global.
4) dom/media/MediaPermissionGonk.cpp: We probably want the caller to notice if
anything here throws.
5) dom/xbl/nsXBLPrototypeBinding.cpp: Inits with a non-web global.
6) dom/xul/nsXULElement.cpp: Inits with a non-web global.
7) extensions/pref/autoconfig/src/nsJSConfigTriggers.cpp: Inits with a non-web global.
8) ipc/testshell/XPCShellEnvironment.cpp: Inits with a non-web global.
Experience shows that we do not have enough profiler labels to make
BHR hang reports meaningful. This patch adds enough labels to let us
exploit hang reports matching the 25 topmost chrome hangs.
