The `category.WithOptions(...)` syntax was a bit strange and difficult to explain.
Now the category and options are separate parameters. Default options can be specified with `MarkerOptions{}` or just `{}`.
As a special case, defaulted-NoPayload functions don't need `<>`, and defaulted-NoPayload functions and macros don't even need `{}` for default options, e.g.:
`profiler_add_marker("name", OTHER); PROFILER_MARKER_UNTYPED("name", OTHER);`

This backs out all work from bug 1627075 as well as all of its
descendents. There were a few conflicts when backing this out but
overall it was pretty clean, so I would say it's a fairly mild
level of risk. Historically Nathan Froyd has reviewed these patches,
but he is no longer at Mozilla, and no one else is particularly
familiar with the code, so I am passing this off to RyanVM who has
at least been familiar with the history of the bug.

The name `AUTO_PROFILER_MARKER_TEXT` is more consistent with the equivalent non-`AUTO` macro, and similarly arguments have been re-ordered to be the same, i.e.: Name, category&options, text.
The different macros with different argument sets can now be collapsed into one macro, and the optional arguments (timing, inner window id, backtrace) can easily be added to the `MarkerOptions` where needed.
As a bonus, a specific start time can optionally be provided at construction time.

This method only asserts that mInitialized is false, then sets
mInitialized to true. All call sites check that the flag is false,
so the assertion is redundant, so this method can be inlined
and simplified.

Under unknown circumstances, we can end up running chrome
JS during thread manager shutdown. Sometimes this ends up
trying to load new JSMs, but gJarHandler has already been
cleared, leading to a crash.
To avoid this and other issues, this patch forbids the
importing of new JSMs after we're late enough in shutdown
to have cleared the ClearOnShutdown pointers. I allow the
importing of JSMs that have already been loaded, as that
seems like it should be okay.

This should be a relatively straightforward patch. Essentially, we implement
a wrapper class (and friends) around nsZipArchive (and friends), which transparently
caches entries from the underlying zip archive in the StartupCache. This will break
without changes to the StartupCache, made in the patch after this, which allow it
to be used off of the main thread, and outside the main process.

The overall goal of this patch is to make the StartupCache accessible anywhere.
There's two main pieces to that equation:
1. Allowing it to be accessed off main thread, which means modifying the
mutex usage to ensure that all data accessed from non-main threads is
protected.
2. Allowing it to be accessed out of the chrome process, which means passing
a handle to a shared cache buffer down to child processes.
Number 1 is somewhat fiddly, but it's all generally straightforward work. I'll
hope that the comments and the code are sufficient to explain what's going on
there.
Number 2 has some decisions to be made:
- The first decision was to pass a handle to a frozen chunk of memory down to
all child processes, rather than passing a handle to an actual file. There's
two reasons for this: 1) since we want to compress the underlying file on
disk, giving that file to child processes would mean they have to decompress
it themselves, eating CPU time. 2) since they would have to decompress it
themselves, they would have to allocate the memory for the decompressed
buffers, meaning they cannot all simply share one big decompressed buffer.
- The drawback of this decision is that we have to load and decompress the
buffer up front, before we spawn any child processes. We attempt to
mitigate this by keeping track of all the entries that child processes
access, and only including those in the frozen decompressed shared buffer.
- We base our implementation of this approach off of the shared preferences
implementation. Hopefully I got all of the pieces to fit together
correctly. They seem to work in local testing and on try, but I think
they require a set of experienced eyes looking carefully at them.
- Another decision was whether to send the handles to the buffers over IPC or
via command line. We went with the command line approach, because the startup
cache would need to be accessed very early on in order to ensure we do not
read from any omnijars, and we could not make that work via IPC.
- Unfortunately this means adding another hard-coded FD, similar to
kPrefMapFileDescriptor. It seems like at the very least we need to rope all
of these together into one place, but I think that should be filed as a
follow-up?
Lastly, because this patch is a bit of a monster to review - first, thank you
for looking at it, and second, the reason we're invested in this is because we
saw a >10% improvement in cold startup times on reference hardware, with a p
value less than 0.01. It's still not abundantly clear how reference hardware
numbers translate to numbers on release, and they certainly don't translate
well to Nightly numbers, but it's enough to convince me that it's worth some
effort.

Given that we are going to add ContentBlockingAllowList in
CookieSettings, so CookieSettings will be responsible for more stuff than the
cookie behavior and cookie permission. We should use a proper name to
reflect the purpose of it. The name 'CookieSettings' is misleading that
this is only for cookie related stuff. So, we decide to rename
'CookieSettins' to 'CookieJarSettings' which serves better meaning here.
