Due to asynchronicity or malice we can receive messages for unknown
ProxyContexts. Immediately reject such messages.

LegacyExtensionContext should inherit from BaseContext instead of
ExtensionContext, because the latter is moving to a separate process.
Remove the optional `url` parameter because the context is not a frame.
`url` is assigned to `sender.url`, which should only be set for frames.
The sender is only used in extension messaging when `runtime.connect` or
`runtime.sendMessage` are used (where `sender.url` is visible at the
receiver). Since legacy extensions don't send messages, there is no
point at all in setting the `url` value.

- Introduce a proxy for IPC messages to allow the following APIs
to be run out-of-process (ProxyMessenger):
* runtime.connect
* runtime.sendMessage
* tabs.connect
* tabs.sendMessage
* runtime.onConnect
* runtime.onMessage
- Update getSender in ext-tabs, make it independent of the context
(in particular do not throw an error when a message is received while
the tab is gone), and move it from MessageChannel to ProxyMessenger to
make sure that it works in webext-oop. MessageChannel lives in a child
process, whereas the TabManager (used by getSender) requires data from
the main process.
- Set the third parameter of `addMessageListener` to true in some places
to make sure that messages get delivered even after unloading the
context. This is needed for the next two points.
- Put the `messageManager` property in BaseContext, and let it be set by
`setContentWindow` - runtime.sendMessage/connect and tabs.sendMessage/
connect depends on this property, and using the frame message manager
makes sense.
- Unconditionally use the frame message manager in
runtime.sendMessage/connect instead of sometimes the cpmm.

To allow ExtensionContext to be refactored, we first need to remove the
dependency of ProxyContext on ExtensionContext.
With the decoupling, we can make setContentWindow unconditional and
remove externallyVisible. Let's clean up later.

This patch introduces helper for the embedding of a webextension (and new related tests).
The new exported helpers are going to be integrated in the XPIProvider
to provide the Embedded WebExtension to the Legacy Extensions which
have enabled it in their install.rdf
MozReview-Commit-ID: 7M1DRkXjGat
- this new module contains helpers to be able to receive connections
originated from a webextension context from a legacy extension context
(implemented by the `LegacyExtensionContext` class exported from
this new jsm module)
- two new test files (an xpcshell-test and a mochitest-browser) ensures that the LegacyExtensionContext can receive a Port
object and exchange messages with a background page and a content script (the content script test
is in a different test file because it doesn't currently work on android, because it needs
the browser.tabs API and the TabManager internal helper)

Split the `shouldInject` method into separate methods:
- `shouldInject` to determine whether the API (or namespace)
should be injected.
- `getImplementation` to return the actual implementation.
Introduced `SchemaAPIInterface` for documentation purposes, and
two concrete implementations `LocalAPIImplementation` and
`ProxyAPIImplementation` which provide the functionality to run a local
and remote implementation of the API for which the schema API is
generated, respectively. These classes store the necessary details for
the invocation, so the methods that were formerly in the `Context` in
Schemas.jsm no longer get the `pathObj`, `path` or `name` parameters.
And merge the `path` and `name` in the implementation of remote APIs
because there is no need for having them separate, as the callers and
callees often did redundant pre/post-processing on `data.path` because
of the way it was implemented.

The API implementation is already available upfront when the schema API
is generated, so `pathObj` has the implementation and can be used
instead of looking up the implementation over and over again with
`findPathInObject`.

- By default, schema APIs are not injected in content scripts unless
the JSON schema sets the "restrictions" attribute to `["content"]`.
- Added the "restrictions" attribute to the storage and test schemas.
Other APIs will follow in subsequent commits and make use of the
primitives introduced in this commit.

- Moved Management logic to ExtensionUtils (as SchemaAPIManager) so that
the logic can be used by addon and content processes.
- Remove the `context.extension.hasPermission(api.permission)` check in
`generateAPIs` because the only user (`registeredPrivilegedAPI`) was
removed before in bug 1295082.
- Add new category "webextension-scripts-content", intended for
registering the few scripts that must be loaded in a content process.
MozReview-Commit-ID: 81nhblV8YE6
- Add `envType` to BaseContext.
- Pass an explicit envType to all `registerSchemaAPI` invocations.
- The factories passed to `registerSchemaAPI` will be split up later, so
that content scripts (`content_child`) and addon pages can share
common implementations.
- The factories that implement the addon API will also be split up,
to separate code running in the main process (`addon_parent`) from
code running in a child process (`addon_child`).
- Remove the use of a hardcoded list of `namespaces` from ProxyContext.
Now `envType` is used to specify whether an API should be activated.

Local wrappers currently look up the API object over and over again
whenever a schema API is invoked. This can be optimized by re-using
the lookup result from a `shouldInject` invocation, which is passed
as the `pathObj` parameter to the wrapper methods.
This commit adds the necessary changes and tests to allow this to
happen, but does not modify the wrapper in Extension.jsm yet.
Also, this construction allows the `ChildAPIManager` to use a local
implementation if available and fall back to a remote implementation
otherwise.

Currently there is a tight coupling between registered APIs because they
share the same global scope, and the dependencies between the modules
that use these globals are not explicit. Consequently, it would be
possible for APIs to break when the registered APIs run in separate
processes, because then there are separate global scopes.
To mitigate this issue, this patch isolates the global namespaces of
API registrations in different environments, starting with the "chrome"
process. Content and addon processes will follow later.
A new JSM is introduced to avoid hidden dependencies between ext-*.js
and the script loader. ExtensionUtils.jsm would be a natural choice for
this shared utility method, but cannot be used because its local
`EventEmitter` implementation conflicts with the `EventEmitter` import
in ext-tabs.js.
So, this patch provides isolation of global variables declared through
`globals.XXX = ...`, but does not provide isolation for `Cu.import`-ed
logic. Ideally `Cu.import` should always use its second argument to
prevent inadvertent namespace pollution.

The presence of these globals interfere with the attempt to get ext-*.js
scripts to load in a content process because these globals are only
available in the main process.

ExtensionContext in Extension.jsm has |extension| as an instance member,
so use it instead of passing |extension| to registerSchemaAPI's
callback.
And to make sure that this pattern also works in content processes, move
the |extension| member to BaseContext.

needed to be able to return null when the registered schema API should not be available
based on the context type instead of WebExtensions permissions.

Prior to this change, SpecialPowers used the extension id to identiy
extension instances in inter-process messaging. This required that
an id be allocated from the content process side when loadExtension()
was called, but that made it impossible to test code that exercises the
code path in the AddonManager that allocates ids for extensions that do
not include an id in the manifest (it also made the loadExtension() api
clunky).
With this change, SpecialPowers allocates an internal identifier for
messaging, but this identifier is separate from extension ids.
Confusingly, we still store the actual extension id in an id property
on the object returned by loadExtension(), but there are enough tests
that reference this that it would be unnecessarily disruptive to get
rid of it so it stays for now...
