The preference key 'browser.newtab.url' is only supported for the browser,
and undefined on all other targets; such as mobile or b2g. For those targets
the function 'nsDocShell::ShouldAddToSessionHistory' warns about the missing
key.
This patch silences this warning by making Gecko return a default value of
'true' if the key is not present in the preferences.
The main bug fixed here is that in half of our interfaces, we use "is browser frame/element" to mean "browser or app", and in the other half, we use it to mean "is browser not app".
There's a related, functional bug also fixed here, which is that a browser process doesn't inherit its parent's app-id. This causes problems e.g. for IndexedDB: If a browser inside an app uses IndexedDB, the DB should have the app's app-id.
I also modified Tab{Parent,Child} and nsFrameLoader to call "app" "ownOrContainingApp", to emphasize that we might have inherited the app from a parent process. I left nsIDocShell::appId alone, because changing that would have necessitated changing nsILoadGroup and therefore a /lot/ of users in Necko; it's also not clear it would have clarified anything in those cases.
