They are not yet fully async because ContentParent::InitInternal calls
OtherPid(), which will block until the process is spawned. Deferring the calls
to OtherPid() will be a subject of a follow up patch.

Never store names in Message. One can get string names from
Message::name() or use IPC::StringFromIPCMessageType() when only
message id is available.

We only ever use these for passing them into Endpoint construction.
Let's remove them. Removing them also shows that the corresponding
field in Endpoint is essentially read-only, so we can completely avoid
passing in protocol IDs to Endpoint.
This patch implements async returns for IPDL using MozPromises. There
are following changes:
* Initialize AbstractThreads for MessageLoops
* Record promises and their reject functions
* When async message returns, call their resolve functions
* When send error or channel close, call their reject functions
* Implement "unresolved-ipc-promises" count for about:memory
* Test cases
See bug attachment for generated code from test cases

If Firefox is updated while it is running, the content process can end
up being a different version than the parent process. This can cause
odd crashes, that will happen repeatedly until the user restarts
Firefox. To handle this better, this patch adds a special build ID
message that is sent early in content process startup. The parent
process intentionally crashes if the build ID for the child process
does not match that of the parent process.

Using a separate error function will distinguish mismatched sentinels
from other errors, such as array length problems.

Every new PBrowser, whether it's created by the parent or the child, needs
to get a TabGroup assigned to it. That way IPC messages for the PBrowser will
be dispatched to that TabGroup.
For new PBrowsers created by the child, we just create a new TabGroup or reuse
the opener's TabGroup.
For PBrowsers created by the parent, the child needs to intercept the
PBrowserConstructor message and assign a TabGroup immediately. PBrowsers created
by the parent never have an opener so we can always create a new TabGroup.
In both cases, the nsGlobalWindow::TabGroupOuter logic needs to be updated to
read the TabGroup out of the IPC code. Otherwise the DOM and IPC code will get
out of sync about TabGroups.

We will use the new type for the generated IPDL message handler
prototype to make sure correct error handling method is called.
