Using g_slice_set_config() fails with newer glib because the slice allocator
now has a static constructor that runs when glib is loaded, consequently
emitting a noisy error message which confuses people into believing it's the
root of their problems.
The only way left to force the slice allocator to use "system" malloc (in
practice, jemalloc) is to set the G_SLICE environment variable to
always-malloc, and that needs to happen before glib is loaded.
Fortunately, the firefox and plugin-container executables don't depend on
glib. Unfortunately, webapprt does, so the problem remains for web apps
running through it. xpcshell and other executables that depend on libxul
directly (as opposed to loading it dynamically) are not covered either.
This is straightforward mapping of PR_LOG levels to their LogLevel
counterparts:
PR_LOG_ERROR -> LogLevel::Error
PR_LOG_WARNING -> LogLevel::Warning
PR_LOG_WARN -> LogLevel::Warning
PR_LOG_INFO -> LogLevel::Info
PR_LOG_DEBUG -> LogLevel::Debug
PR_LOG_NOTICE -> LogLevel::Debug
PR_LOG_VERBOSE -> LogLevel::Verbose
Instances of PRLogModuleLevel were mapped to a fully qualified
mozilla::LogLevel, instances of PR_LOG levels in #defines were mapped to a
fully qualified mozilla::LogLevel::* level, and all other instances were
mapped to us a shorter format of LogLevel::*.
Bustage for usage of the non-fully qualified LogLevel were fixed by adding
|using mozilla::LogLevel;| where appropriate.

They are kept around for the sake of the standalone glue, which is used
for e.g. webapprt, which doesn't have direct access to jemalloc, and thus
still needs a wrapper to go through the xpcom function list and get to
jemalloc from there.
