Telemetry's AutoTimer Microsecond resolution was not used. I removed it with the TimerResolution enum, which allowed me to remove a couple of templates as well.

This patch enables generating a JSON file that mirrors the scalar definitions
in Scalars.yaml. On local developer builds, this file is loaded when Firefox
starts to register all the scalars. If some change was introduced in the
definition files, the new scalar will be dynamically added.
The JSON definition file will be regenerated every time an artifact build
is performed or the build faster command is invoked.

Telemetry::Accumulate now supports two new signatures: Accumulate(HistogramId, nsTArray stringLabels) and
Accumulate(nsTArray enumValues). In the stringLabels case, if the array contains an invalid label, then no
samples are accumulated at all. In the enumValues array case, the class template ensures that we do not have
a mismatch of labels in the array, since the enumValues class is tied to the id of the histogram we want to
accumulate to.
Extended the Telemetry::Accumulate API to take a Histogram ID, string key, and a nsTArray<uint32_t> of samples.
Test cases check for linear, count and histograms with a set of allowed keys. Made changes to fix try failures.
Added another Telemetry::Accumulate function that takes a histogram id and an array of samples as arguments.
As of this patch, adding multiple samples to keyed and categorical histograms is not supported.
We're starting a shift towards talking about release/prerelease data instead of
base/extended collection. For now this is just a naming change.
At the same time, we can render these attributes read-only, which is nice.

Currently the Gecko Profiler defines a moderate amount of stuff when
MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER is undefined. It also #includes various headers, including
JS ones. This is making it difficult to separate Gecko's media stack for
inclusion in Servo.
This patch greatly simplifies how things are exposed. The starting point is:
- GeckoProfiler.h can be #included unconditionally;
- everything else from the profiler must be guarded by MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER.
In practice this introduces way too many #ifdefs, so the patch loosens it by
adding no-op macros for a number of the most common operations.
The net result is that #ifdefs and macros are used a bit more, but almost
nothing is exposed in non-MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER builds (including
ProfilerMarkerPayload.h and GeckoProfiler.h), and understanding what is exposed
is much simpler than before.
Note also that in BHR, ThreadStackHelper is now entirely absent in
non-MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER builds.
With the removal of the old addonHistograms, all histograms are now registered.
So removing registered(Keyed)Histograms should be straightforward?
Unfortunately not, as this was how we filtered data based on dataset
(opt-in/opt-out), so a little more fiddling was needed to get C++ to only
serialize dataset-appropriate data (instead of post-facto filtering it in JS).

HangAnnotations was very complex, required a separate allocation, and used this
unfortunate virtual interface implementation which made it harder to do
interesting things with it (such as serialize it over IPC).
This new implementation is much simpler and more concrete, making
HangAnnotations simply be a nsTArray<Annotation>. This also simplifies some of
the IPC code which was added in part 7.

We're going to use HangDetails as the type containing hang information. We'll
have a JS component which reads the data out of nsIHangDetails, builds the
payload, and submits it to telemetry for us.
We'll do it in JS because telemetry has to be submitted from JS.
This patch also adds IPC serization for the relevant types so that we can send
HangDetails objects over IPDL.

To cut down on complexity, we don't require specifying any expiry versions.
Given that these events will be recorded non-persistently from off-train add-ons, they can be expired by shipping new add-on releases.
We also start to use the new "record on release" terminology here instead of opt-in/opt-out, but are not changing the internal functionality yet.
Technically, this is implemented by keeping a separate registry for the dynamic event information.
Built-in & dynamic events are tracked with separate numeric ids, so introduce a common identifier for both, an EventKey.
For actual event storage, the events are treated the same as built-in events. They are simply bucketed into the 'dynamic' process storage.
This approach ends up duplicating code paths that use the event info, but keeps a single implementation for recording, storage & serialization.
TelemetrySession's getKeyedHistograms asks for each keyed histogram
individually. This is inefficient and doesn't work well with the storage
refactor.
So, plumb through a subsession keyed histogram snapshot API and convert
TelemetrySession over to using it.

The Chromium IPC histogram code used the StatisticsRecorder object for storage.
This is keyed by histogram name, which doesn't match our storage reality anymore.
Instead we use a name to refer to a set of histogram instances that record data from different processes, as well as separating session and subsession data.
Consequently we need to rewrite this storage, which means StatisticsRecorder is not used anymore.

This patch reduces the differences between builds where the profiler is enabled
and those where the profiler is disabled. It does this by removing numerous
MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER checks.
These changes have the following consequences.
- Various functions and classes are now defined in all builds, and so can be
used unconditionally: profiler_add_marker(), profiler_set_js_context(),
profiler_clear_js_context(), profiler_get_pseudo_stack(), AutoProfilerLabel.
(They are effectively no-ops in non-profiler builds, of course.)
- The no-op versions of PROFILER_* are now gone. The remaining versions are
almost no-ops when the profiler isn't built.
