There is no reason to have special methods for specific sets of CompileOptions
when the JS::Compile interface is so easy to use. Other API methods can be
moved internal or removed entirely with this change.

We have many CESU8 paths in SpiderMonkey which are completely unused and
untested. We have many more "UTF-8" paths which are really mislabled CESU8 paths
and visa-versa. This patch attempts to disentable all of the various encoding
options in SpiderMonkey.
There's no longer any reason why "certificate principals" need to be principals at all.
I tried to rip them out entirely, but it looks like they're still used vestigially at XPI
install time to display author information. But there's no reason that they have to be
porkbarreled into the security-critical objects that we pass around all over the place.
So let's make them their own deal.
I was tempted to call them "certificate holders", but that would involve renaming methods and
cause more compat fuss than necessary.

We currently set this for system globals and anything whose parent
chain leads to a system global. Maybe this was relevant before, but
with CPG this is just equivalent to asking whether the object is in
a system compartment. And the only place where we _check_ this bit
is immediately after checking for a system compartment, in
WrapperFactory. So AFAICT this can go away entirely.

This part replaces the JSContext *cx argument in most GC-related API
with JSRuntime *rt. When possible, the patch removes the code to obtain
a temporary cx just to run the GC.
The patch also removes JS_DestroyContextMaybeGC. That function is not
used in FF code base and its implementation is broken. It requires that
the context has an entered compartment when it is destroyed, which in
turns implies a missing leave compartment call.
In just 2 cases where JSPrincipals::codebase is used it can be reconstructed from the values stored in the associated nsJSPrincipal. In addition the patch makes nsJSprincipals to inherit both from nsIPrincipal and JSPrincipals allowing to use static_cast to convert between nsIPrincipal and JSPrincipals pointers and to drop many cases of manual JSPrincipal reference counting.
