This patch adjusts the various places where we initialize content
processes to call SetGeckoProcessType as early as possible, and be more
consistent. After this change we should only ever set GeckoProcessType
and GeckoChildID once per-process (with the exception of the fork server
process).
In addition to this validation, some more checks around the fork server
were added, such as to prevent forking another forkserver, or forking a
non-content process.
As part of this change, there was some refactoring/cleanup done, such as
removing plugin-container.cpp and content_process_main, as compared to
the other duplicated code between the two call-sites, the duplication
was relatively small, and inlining it helped make things more readable.

The new GeckoChildID type introduced in this patch is inspired by the existing
ContentParentID type used by ContentParent, but is currently distinct. It is
supported by all process types at the GeckoChildProcessHost level and can be
read for the current process from anywhere.
As this type is similar in many ways to the process type, and should be
available as early as possible within child processes, this was added alongside
the GeckoProcessType value within mozglue to make that easier to do.
The type was chosen to be an int32_t to make it feel similar to a PID, which we
currently use for process identity comparisons across the codebase. The
intention is for GeckoChildID to be preferred for these within-gecko checks, as
these IDs will not be re-used and can be known earlier during child process
creation.

So this changes a bit how we intend to enable this.
There is still the "discoverystream.topicSelection.enabled" pref, but that's now either, set by the system, or overridden by the user.
We no longer set that pref to enable/disable this feature, and this pref no longer has a set default.
It now has a dynamic default, set from calculating the locale/region pref, which does have defaults, can be controlled from experiments.

- max-history-rows pref set to 0 for Nightly only.
- Add the X button to close a tab on hover.
- Introduce an extension to `fxview-tab-list` which handles the differences between here and FxView.
- Reuse the empty state for when history is cleared (same as firefox view).
- Update the logic of `fxview-empty-state` to allow for opening prefs link in the parent window (instead of the sidebar browser).

This was the feature flag behind which the settings page's 'search' functionality was written.
It's been there for years now, and it is high time to clean this up.
