This protects all accesses to the frame property table with a bit stored
on the frame. This means we avoid hashtable operations when asking
about frame properties on frames that have no properties.
The changes to RestyleManager, and the new HasSkippingBitCheck API, are
needed because RestyleManager depended on being able to ask for
properties on a deleted frame (knowing that the property in question
could not have been set on any new frames since the deleted frame was
destroyed), in order to use the destruction of the properties that
happens at frame destruction as a mechanism for learning that the frame
was destroyed. The changes there preserve the use of that mechanism,
although it becomes a bit uglier. The ugliness is well-deserved.

This makes it so that, given a |const nsIFrame*|, a caller can retrieve
properties but not set or remove them, but with an |nsIFrame*| all
operations are allowed. I believe this is sensible since properties act
as extended member variables for things that are needed rarely, and
these are the const-ness semantics of member variables.
This also avoids the need for const_cast<nsIFrame*> to cast away const
in the following patch, which guards property access with a frame state
bit.

This patch makes methods of FramePropertyTable and FrameProperties to be
simple template wrapper functions. Then it converts all references to
FramePropertyDescriptor to use "void" parameter to simulate the current
unsafe behavior.
SmallValueHolder is used for storing small values like int32_t, float,
which can fit in the size of a pointer directly, and thus no lifetime
management is needed.
