The assertions in nsINode and nsWrapperCache are to eagerly catch
failures to override those methods.
The classinfo change for XULTreeBuilder is needed because one of those
is returned via an nsIXULTemplateBuilder attribute on XULElement.
Alternately, I could mark it notflattened in Bindings.conf, but Enn
said he prefers this anyway.
The change to the QI impl in BindingUtils is needed because when
XPConnect converts an IID from C++ to JS it makes is an nsJSID, not an
nsJSIID. We've run into this before, sadly.
I removed "id" from nsIDOMXULElement because it's already on Element.
I suppose I could have left it there, but this seems cleaner.
The nsJSIID::HasInstance changes are needed to support XBL-implemented
interfaces. Sadly, this does mean that if the underlying object QIs
to something but we didn't put those props on the WebIDL we'll end up
testing true for instanceof but not exposing the props. I don't see
an obviously better way. We should work on killing off uses of
"instanceof someinterface".
The browser.js change is needed to avoid throwing exceptions during
browser-chrome tests that are now getting reported because our
swapFrameLoaders is no longer an XPConnect method.

I'm not entirely happy with the XPath bits. If we had an
nsXPathEvaluator member, or if the WebIDL API were on
nsIDOMXPathEvaluator or something, all that stuff would need a lot
less code...
We mark constructors as static in the parser because they are. This
allows us to just use the isStatic() for the IDLMember to mark our
declarations static.
To generate an example interface implementation, just "make
interfacename-example" in $objdir/dom/bindings. This will place files
called interfacename-example.h and interfacename-example.cpp in that
directory. For example, "make XMLHttpRequest-example" will get you
$objdir/dom/bindings/XMLHttpRequest-example.h and
$objdir/dom/bindings/XMLHttpRequest-example.cpp.
Attribute getters currently default to const methods, while setters
and operations default to non-const methods.

This patch enables sharing of an nsAttrValue's MiscContainer between nodes for style rules. MiscContainers of type eCSSStyleRule are now refcounted (with some clever struct packing to ensure that the amount of memory allocated for MiscContainer remains unchanged on 32 and 64 bit). This infrastructure can be used to share most MiscContainer types in the future if we find advantages to sharing other types than just eCSSStyleRuley. A cache mapping strings to MiscContainers has been added to nsHTMLCSSStyleSheet. MiscContainers can be shared between nsAttrValues when one nsAttrValue is SetTo another nsAttrValue or when there is a cache hit in this cache. This patch also adds the ability to tell a style rule that it belongs to an nsHTMLCSSStyleSheet, with appropriate accessor functions to separate that from the existing case of belonging to an nsCSSStyleSheet.
The primary use case is to reduce memory use for pages that have lots of inline style attributes with the same value. This can happen easily with large pages that are automatically generated. An (admittedly pathological) testcase in Bug 686975 sees over 250 MB of memory savings with this change. Reusing the same MiscContainer for multiple nodes saves the overhead of maintaining separate copies of the string containing the serialized value of the style attribute and of creating separate style rules for each node. Eliminating duplicate style rules enables further savings in layout through style context sharing. The testcase sees the amount of memory used by style contexts go from over 250 MB to 10 KB.
Because the cache is based on the text value of the style attribute, it will not handle attributes that have different text values but are parsed into identical style rules. We also do not attempt to share MiscContainers when the node's base URI differs from the document URI. The effect of these limitations is expected to be low.
Another implementation option would be to put all the dictionaries in a single
file and have a static global set of ids which works across all dictionaries
and is initialized once at startup or so. That would also handle cross-file
dictionary inheritance better.
One problem that remains is the fake descriptor business. At the moment this
does not allow interface types inside dictionaries. We could probably work
around this by either refactoring code to make it possible to get the declType
independently of the actual conversion template (whether because it lives in a
separate function or because the conversion template generator knows to just
return an empty string when the fake descriptor provirder is passed) or by
figuring out a way to pass an actual descriptor provider to dictionary codegen.
