Lots of little bits of overhead add up to a significant amount of overhead
over the many, many times this function is called.

There is no longer any file in components/extensions/ext-* that use require().
Therefore it should be ok to stop exposing it.

checkLoadURIStrWithPrincipal runs URLs through the URI fixup services and
checks against each of the results. This is both expensive and unnecessary for
our purposes.

Web contetnt processes only need access to a small amount of schema data, but
we currently send them the approximately 600K of full schema data that is
mostly useless to them.
This patch limits the schema data sent to web content processes to what they
actually need, and sends the rest only to extension content processes.

This gives us performance wins in sevaral areas:
- Creating a structured clone blob of storage data directly from the source
compartment allows us to avoid X-ray and JSON serialization overhead when
storing new values.
- Storing the intermediate StructuredCloneBlob, rather than JSON values,
in-memory saves us additional JSON and structured clone overhead when
passing the values to listeners and API callers, and saves us a fair amount
of memory to boot.
- Serializing storage values before sending them over a message manager allows
us to deserialize them directly into an extension scope on the other side,
saving us a lot of additional structured clone overhead and intermediate
garbage generation.
- Using JSONFile.jsm for storage lets us consolidate multiple storage file
write operations, rather than performing a separate JSON serialization for
each individual storage write.
- Additionally, this paves the way for us to transition to IndexedDB as a
storage backend, with full support for arbitrary structured-clone-compatible
data structures.

The implementations of browserAction, pageAction, and menu onClick
handlers now stash the current <browser> until we get a reply from
the extension process indicating that the handler has finished running.
We also have to take care to keep that <browser> around even if the
permissions api has to be loaded asynchronously.

Also removes some dead code.
A lot of the code in ExtensionUtils.jsm is not needed in all processes, and a
lot of the rest isn't needed until extension code runs. Most of it winds up
being loaded into all processes way earlier than necessary.

This is the second step to migrating the policy service to pure native code,
with similar impacts and reasoning to the previous patch.

In order to rewrite the Gecko Profiler add-on as a WebExtension,
we need an API for the profiler which allows us to control the
nsIProfiler, and symbolicate the stacks that it provides. This
is the implementation of the simpler parts of that API.
TODO:
- Support profiling of remote targets through a new devtools
API.
- Support the dump_syms breakpad code which was asm.js in the
old extension by directly calling into native code.
- Figure out a faster way to send the large volume of data from
getSymbols all the way from our extension down to the content
process and then into the page's context.
