Malte Jürgens c56f4c91eb Bug 1919558 - Part 6: Add RemotePermissionService to get default permissions from remote settings r=pbz,permissions-reviewers
This is adding the RemotePermissionService xpcom js service for the purpose of
importing default permission manager entries from remote settings. This service
will be initialized by the permission manager after it has read all its
permissions from disk and is fully initialized.

When being initialized, the service will at first get all the current default
remote permissions from the remote settings client, and add them as default
permissions through the `AddDefaultFromPrincipal` method added in D222650. An
event listener is then also set up to keep the default entries in the permission
manager in sync with remote settings.

All of this is guarded behind a whitelist in the the `ALLOWED_PERMISSION_VALUES`
variable, ensuring only specific permission types and values can be imported
through this mechanism.
