This is a follow-up to bug 1409249. There are a lot of places where our
factory singleton constructors either don't correctly handle their returned
references being released by the component manager, or do handle it, but in
ways that are not obvious.
This patch handles a few places where we can sometimes wind up with dangling
singleton pointers, adds some explanatory comments and sanity check
assertions, and replaces some uses of manual refcounting with StaticRefPtr and
ClearOnShutdown.
There are still some places where we may wind up with odd behavior if the
first QI for a getService call fails. In those cases, we wind up destroying
the first instance of a service that we create, and re-creating a new one
later.

Right now, NS_GENERIC_FACTORY_SINGLETON_CONSTRUCTOR expects singleton
constructors to return already-addrefed raw pointers, and while it accepts
constructors that return already_AddRefed, most existing don't do so.
Meanwhile, the convention elsewhere is that a raw pointer return value is
owned by the callee, and that the caller needs to addref it if it wants to
keep its own reference to it.
The difference in convention makes it easy to leak (I've definitely caused
more than one shutdown leak this way), so it would be better if we required
the singleton getters to return an explicit already_AddRefed, which would
behave the same for all callers.
This also cleans up several singleton constructors that left a dangling
pointer to their singletons when their initialization methods failed, when
they released their references without clearing their global raw pointers.

This removes about 2/3 of the occurrences of nsXPIDLString in the tree. The
places where nsXPIDLStrings are null-checked are replaced with |rv| checks.
The patch also removes a couple of unused declarations from
nsIStringBundle.idl.
Note that nsStringBundle::GetStringFromNameHelper() was merged into
GetStringFromName(), because they both would have had the same signature.
We have a minimum requirement of VS 2015 for Windows builds, which supports
the z length modifier for format specifiers. So we don't need SizePrintfMacros.h
any more, and can just use %zu and friends directly everywhere.

Most of the names passed to nsIStringBundle::{Get,Format}StringFromUTF8Name
have one of the two following forms:
- a 16-bit C string literal, which is then converted to an 8-bit string in
order for the lookup to occur;
- an 8-bit C string literal converted to a 16-bit string, which is then
converted back to an 8-bit string in order for the lookup to occur.
This patch introduces and uses alternative methods that can take an 8-bit C
string literal, which requires changing some signatures in other methods and
functions. It replaces all C++ uses of the old methods.
The patch also changes the existing {Get,Format}StringFromName() methods so
they take an AUTF8String argument for the name instead of a wstring, because
that's nicer for JS code.
Even though there is a method for C++ code and a different one for JS code,
|binaryname| is used so that the existing method names can be used for the
common case in both languages.
The change reduces the number of NS_ConvertUTF8toUTF16 and
NS_ConvertUTF16toUTF8 conversions while running Speedometer v2 from ~270,000 to
~160,000. (Most of these conversions involved the string
"deprecatedReferrerDirective" in nsCSPParser.cpp.)
blob URIs are sent through unfiltered and data URIs are hashed in
the same way as Chrome does.
Also, we used to bail on the first invalid URL we encountered. We now
keep going, checking the other URLs in the chain and eventually doing
the remote lookup.
A missing dependency in "nsTypeAheadFind.h" is also fixed to allow the removal of the include files from "nsToolkitCompsModule.cpp".

I'm adding a helper function mozILocaleService::GetRequestedLocale to simplify
most of the callsites that are looking for the first of the requested locales.
In most cases, I'm just matching the behavior of the code with reusing
LocaleService API instead of direct manipulation on the prefs.
That includes how I handle error case scenarios.
In case of sdk/l10n/locale.js I am reusing LocaleService heuristics over
the custom one from the file since the ones in LocaleService are just
more correct and unified accross the whole platform.
In case of FallbackEncoding I have to turn it into a nsIObserver to listen
to intl:requested-locales-changed.
