Bug 1345294 introduced nsPrefBranch::{get,set}StringPref(), which allowed the
getting of utf8 strings from prefs, which previously required using
nsISupportsString with {get,set}ComplexValue. That bug also converted most
uses.
This patch finishes the job.
- It removes the nsISupportsString support.
- It converts existing code that relied on the nsISupportsString.
- It removes the lint that was set up to detect such uses of nsISupportsString.

This updates test_libPrefs.js so that it actually runs all the observer
portion of it's tests. Previously the observer callback would get hit before
the next do_test_pending call could be run, thus causing the test to end.
An additional test was added to confirm that registering for multiple prefs on
a non-root pref branch works as intended.
Be warned. Do not attemp to change the .js "test" source code in ./js
They are meant to check
- the outdated 0666 octal constant is still parsed correctly,
- the outdated 0666 octal constant raises syntax error flag
in strict mode, etc.
So leave them alone.
