Previously manifestparser only supported inline comments on conditional keys, such as
skip-if, fails-if, subsuite-if, etc. But on any other key name, inline comments weren't
supported. This was a bad situation because people saw these skip-if comments, and
naturally assumed inline comments worked everywhere. Then they were surprised when things
broke in mysterious ways.
This patch removes the special-casing for skip-if and friends and allows inline comments
everywhere. A caveat to this, is that ' #' is no longer a valid substring in a value.

It turns out there are shockingly few cases of manifestparser manifests that actually use the ';'
character as a comment. Because we will soon allow inline comments, deprecating the use of ';' will
ensure that values are allowed to have semicolons in them.
Even without inline comments, might as well enforce consistency across manifests.

This deprecates PYTHON_UNIT_TESTS and replaces it with PYTHON_UNITTEST_MANIFESTS.
In the build system, this means python unittests will be treated the same as all
other test suites that use manifestparser. New manifests called 'python.ini' have
been created for all test directories containing python unittests.

A filter is a callable that accepts an iterable of tests and a dictionary of values (e.g mozinfo.info) and returns an iterable of tests. Note filtering can mean modifying tests in addition to removing them. For example, this implements a "timeout-if" tag in the manifest:
from manifestparser import expression
import mozinfo
def timeout_if(tests, values):
for test in tests:
if 'timeout-if' in test:
timeout, condition = test['timeout-if'].split(',', 1)
if expression.parse(condition, **values):
test['timeout'] = timeout
yield test
tests = mp.active_tests(filters=[timeout_if], **mozinfo.info)
