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.
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.

Because they are now just equivalent to |new PLDHashTable()| +
PL_DHashTableInit() and PL_DHashTableFinish(t) + |delete t|, respectively.
They're only used in a handful of places and obscure things more than they
clarify -- I only recently worked out exactly how they different from Init()
and Finish().

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.

Because (a) this is how it's usually done, (b) it allows static_cast<> instead
of reinterpret_cast<>, and (c) it will make subsequent patches easier.

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.

There are, sadly, many combinations of linkage in use throughout the tree.
The main differentiator, though, is between program/libraries related to
Gecko or not. Kind of. Some need mozglue, some don't. Some need dependent
linkage, some standalone.
Anyways, these new templates remove the need to manually define the
right dependencies against xpcomglue, nspr, mozalloc and mozglue
in most cases.
Places that build programs and were resetting MOZ_GLUE_PROGRAM_LDFLAGS
or that build libraries and were resetting MOZ_GLUE_LDFLAGS can now
just not use those Gecko-specific templates.
