HangAnnotations was very complex, required a separate allocation, and used this
unfortunate virtual interface implementation which made it harder to do
interesting things with it (such as serialize it over IPC).
This new implementation is much simpler and more concrete, making
HangAnnotations simply be a nsTArray<Annotation>. This also simplifies some of
the IPC code which was added in part 7.

TelemetrySession's getKeyedHistograms asks for each keyed histogram
individually. This is inefficient and doesn't work well with the storage
refactor.
So, plumb through a subsession keyed histogram snapshot API and convert
TelemetrySession over to using it.

The Chromium IPC histogram code used the StatisticsRecorder object for storage.
This is keyed by histogram name, which doesn't match our storage reality anymore.
Instead we use a name to refer to a set of histogram instances that record data from different processes, as well as separating session and subsession data.
Consequently we need to rewrite this storage, which means StatisticsRecorder is not used anymore.

Create AccumulateCategoricalKeyed() to specify both key and value for the categorical histogram,
sinc AccumulateCategorical() only support non-keyed histogram.

Changed |print("enum ID : uint32_t {", file=output)| to |print("enum HistogramID : uint32_t {", file=output)| at line 53 of the file |toolkit/components/telemetry/gen-histogram-enum.py|, and then replaced all the textual occurrences of |Telemetry::ID| to |Telemetry::HistogramID| and |ID| to |HistogramID| in 43 other files.
Batch the accumulations to only transmit every so often, so we don't incur
too much in the way of IPC overhead penalties.
What this doesn't do:
* remove or restructure child telemetry code to adapt to the new way
* send the telemetry anywhere
* allow for the child process to clear child histograms
* support anything but histograms (but this is expected and okay)

This patch teaches gen-histogram-enum.py how to correctly deal with the
situation where there are no use counters. It also adds
mozilla::Telemetry::GetHistogramName for debugging purposes.
