There are a few things going on here:
1) Better tracking of whether we've done our synthetic document stuff so we
don't redo it when it's not needed. We should only be doing it on initial
load.
2) Better handling of our readystate transitions. We're only responsible for
the transition to READYSTATE_INTERACTIVE if we're the ones setting up the DOM.
Otherwise whoever is doing that should do the readystate transition.
Both of these really use the same mechanism, which is why I ended up doing them
together.
We're currently fairly vague and inconsistent about the values we provide to
content policy implementations for requestOrigin and requestPrincipal. In some
cases they're the triggering principal, sometimes the loading principal,
sometimes the channel principal.
Our existing content policy implementations which require or expect a loading
principal currently retrieve it from the context node. Since no current
callers require the principal to be the loading principal, and some already
expect it to be the triggering principal (which there's currently no other way
to retrieve), I chose to pass the triggering principal whenever possible, but
use the loading principal to determine the origin URL.
As a follow-up, I'd like to change the nsIContentPolicy interface to
explicitly receive loading and triggering principals, or possibly just
LoadInfo instances, rather than poorly-defined request
origin/principal/context args. But since that may cause trouble for
comm-central, I'd rather not do it as part of this bug.

These are all easy cases where an nsXPIDLCString local variable is set via
getter_Copies() and then is only used in ways that nsCStrings can also be used
(i.e. no null checks or implicit conversions to |char*|).
In every case the patch trivially replaces the nsXPIDLCString with an
nsCString. (Also, there are a couple of unused nsXPIDLCString variables that
the patch simply removes.)
This removes about 2/3 of the occurrences of nsXPIDLString in the tree. The
places where nsXPIDLStrings are null-checked are replaced with |rv| checks.
The patch also removes a couple of unused declarations from
nsIStringBundle.idl.
Note that nsStringBundle::GetStringFromNameHelper() was merged into
GetStringFromName(), because they both would have had the same signature.
Most of the names passed to nsIStringBundle::{Get,Format}StringFromUTF8Name
have one of the two following forms:
- a 16-bit C string literal, which is then converted to an 8-bit string in
order for the lookup to occur;
- an 8-bit C string literal converted to a 16-bit string, which is then
converted back to an 8-bit string in order for the lookup to occur.
This patch introduces and uses alternative methods that can take an 8-bit C
string literal, which requires changing some signatures in other methods and
functions. It replaces all C++ uses of the old methods.
The patch also changes the existing {Get,Format}StringFromName() methods so
they take an AUTF8String argument for the name instead of a wstring, because
that's nicer for JS code.
Even though there is a method for C++ code and a different one for JS code,
|binaryname| is used so that the existing method names can be used for the
common case in both languages.
The change reduces the number of NS_ConvertUTF8toUTF16 and
NS_ConvertUTF16toUTF8 conversions while running Speedometer v2 from ~270,000 to
~160,000. (Most of these conversions involved the string
"deprecatedReferrerDirective" in nsCSPParser.cpp.)
There's an antipattern where nsLiteralString is used as an unnecessary intermediary in converting from CharT* to CharT*,
e.g. CallAFunctionThatTakesACharPointer(NS_LITERAL_CSTRING("foo").get());
or
NS_NAMED_LITERAL_STRING(foo, "abc");
CallAFunctionThatTakesACharPointer(foo.get());
This patch rewrites the callsites that can be trivially changed to use char*/char16_t*.
I'd somewhat like to remove nsTLiteralString::get() altogether, but in code that's less straightforward than these examples, get() is useful enough to keep.
