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.
It's no longer needed now that entry storage isn't allocated there. (The other
possible causes of failures in that function are less interesting and simply
crashing is a reasonable thing to do for them.)
This also makes PL_DNewHashTable() infallible, so I removed some
now-unnecessary checks of its result.
There's a better way to create null principals than
do_CreateInstance("@mozilla.org/nullprincipal;1"). Let's do that and
save ourselves some XPCOM overhead.

The distinction between moz_malloc/moz_free and malloc/free is not
interesting. We are inconsistent in our use of one or the other, and
I wouldn't be surprised if we are mixing them anyways.
I kept all the existing PL_DHashTableAdd() calls fallible, in order to be
conservative, except for the ones in nsAtomTable.cpp which already were
followed immediately by an abort on failure.

It feels safer to use a function with a new name, rather than just changing the
behaviour of the existing function.
For most of these cases the PL_DHashTableLookup() result was checked with
PL_DHASH_ENTRY_IS_{FREE,BUSY} so the conversion was easy. A few of them
preceded that check with a useless null check, but the intent of these was
still easy to determine.
I'll do the trickier ones in subsequent patches.

Currently the setting of PLDHashTable::ops is very haphazard.
- PLDHashTable has no constructor, so it's not auto-nulled, so lots of places
null it themselves.
- In the fallible PLDHashTable::Init() function, if the entry storage
allocation fails we'll be left with a table that has |ops| set -- indicating
it's been initialized -- but has null entry storage. I'm not certain this can
cause problems but it feels unsafe, and some (but not all) callers of Init()
null it on failure.
- PLDHashTable does not null |ops| in Finish(), so some (but not all) callers
do this themselves.
This patch makes things simpler.
- It adds a constructor that zeroes |ops|.
- It modifies Init() so that it only sets |ops| once success is ensured.
- It zeroes |ops| in Finish().
- Finally, it removes all the now-unnecessary |ops| nulling done by the users
of PLDHashTable.

Clang gives the following warning for this code:
'this' pointer cannot be null in well-defined C++ code; pointer may be assumed to always convert to true
