* Declares that a given page uses a favicon with the given URI and

* aForceReload is true. Similarly, if the icon is in the failed favicon
* cache we won't do anything unless aForceReload is true, in which case
* we'll try to reload the favicon.
*
* This function will only save favicons for "good" URIs, as defined by what
* gets added to history or is a bookmark. For "bad" URIs, this function
* will succeed but do nothing. This function will also ignore the error
* page favicon URI (see FAVICON_ERRORPAGE_URL below).
*
* Icons that fail to load will automatically be added to the failed favicon
* cache, and this function will not save favicons for non-bookmarked URIs
* when history is disabled.
*
* @note This function is identical to
* nsIFaviconService::setAndLoadFaviconForPage.
*
* @param aPageURI
* URI of the page whose favicon is being set.
* @param aFaviconURI
* URI of the favicon to associate with the page.
* @param aForceReload
* If aForceReload is false, we try to reload the favicon only if we
* don't have it or it has expired from the cache. Setting
* aForceReload to true causes us to reload the favicon even if we
* have a usable copy.
* @param aCallback
* Once we're done setting and/or fetching the favicon, we invoke this
* callback.

* Until this time, we won't try to load it again.
