This flips the direction in which the BrowserBridge actor is generally created
such that it is generally created in the parent and sent down to a child
process.
This is done by making the decision about what kind of switch to perform in the
parent, and sending messages down to child processes async to orchestrate these
process changes.
Process launching is changed to use an async `MozPromise`-returning API in this
patch, though the actual process launching still occurs synchronously. A future
patch will enable performing async process launching through the
NewOrUsedBrowserProcess mechanism.
I know of at least a few timing issues which exist with the new logic,
especially around the state of the BrowsingContext during the process
transition. I decided to not try to fix all of these issues in this patch, as
many are complex and will require changing how we manage the lifecycle of
BrowsingContext substantially. I do, however, think that the new logic is more
reliable and has fewer timing issues than the previous logic.

We can remove isOnlyToplevelInTabGroup entirely since we have
BrowsingContext/BrowsingContextGroup exposed through
chrome-webidl. Checking if a browsing context is the only top level
(auxilliary or otherwise) is only a matter of checking that there
isn't a parent, and that the size of the browsing context group is 1.

BrowsingContext.findWithName is required to do access checks based on the
requestor, which can only be done in the process which owns it. This change
also alters the behavior of the existing CanAccess origin checks, which
typically treat any item as same-origin, but only when the docshells are
actually same process.
Removing the exemption fixes the behavior discrepancy between Fission and
non-Fission runs, but also requires that the test be updated to expect proper
access checks. Which is the situation we really want to test, anyway.

DocumentChannel acts as a replacement for HttpChannel where redirects are now entirely handled in the DocumentChannelParent. The ContentChild will receive the final nsIChannel once all redirects have been handled.

ReferrerPolicy gets tossed back and forth as a uint32_t and
ReferrerPolicy enum in header file. Expose ReferrerPolicyValues from
webidl file and use consistently in native code.

When the docshell is being destroyed, HttpChannelChild::CompleteRedirectSetup is not called and HttpChannelChild::mListener is not also assigned. In this case, I think we should cancel the channel and propagate the error to the http channel parent.

If we don't update the resultPrincipalURI, then things that examine it
(e.g. Location APIs and the URL bar) will show the wrong (pre-replaceState) URL.
I believe there is no effective difference between setting the result principal
URI to null and setting it to aNewURI here: the ultimate consumer of it is
NS_GetFinalChannelURI, which will fall back to the originalURI if it's null, and
in this case the originalURI is aNewURI.

The main part of the change is the change to ChildSHistory - make it possible to have Go() to be called asynchronously
and also let one to cancel pending history navigations. History object (window.history) can then use either the sync or
async Go(), depending on the dom.window.history.async pref.
LoadDelegate, which is used by GeckoView, needs special handling, since
it spins event loop nestedly. With session history loads and same-document loads we can just
bypass it.
To deal with same-document case, MaybeHandleSameDocumentNavigation is split to IsSameDocumentNavigation,
which collects relevant information about the request and returns true if same-document navigation should happen,
and then later HandleSameDocumentNavigation uses that information to trigger the navigation.
SameDocumentNavigationState is used to pass the information around.
referrer-policy-test-case.sub.js is buggy causing tests to pass only on Firefox with sync history API.

This also renames the existing infallible nsDocShell:GetBrowsingContext()
getter to BrowsingContextRef(), and changes the return type, since several
callers rely on it returning a raw pointer rather than an already_AddRefed.

This is the first step in making it possible to return remote WindowProxy
objects from window.open() and related APIs.
This patch also incidentally fixes a bug where getContentWindowOrOpenURI
returned the top-level browser window rather than the new content window when
passed OPEN_NEWWINDOW for the `aWhere` parameter. This was not the expected
behavior, and was a potentially major footgun for any new users who expected
to always get the content window for the URL they were loading, rather than
sometimes getting a chrome browser window instead.
For now, that case just returns null, which is only a minor footgun, rather
than the major one we had before.

This change is necessary in order to support named targeting of remote
BrowsingContexts, since the current arrangement only supports in-process
contexts. It also considerably simplifies the logic, since named targetting is
now restricted to the same TabGroup/BrowsingContextGroup, which in and of
itself guarantees that origin attributes will always match in the cases that
we care about.
