this restores some API that is used by search engine management extensions, and
tells "browser-search-engine-modified"/"engine-changed" signal to save user-defined
search engines to "%PROFILE%/searchplugins", as it did in Good Old Times.
During a debug session, log spam appears because we are trying to get the origin out of a principal for about:blank, which will throw, which is expected.
`IsLocalRefURL` is originally designed to be used by URLValue only.
Since we need this function in SVGUseElement::LookupHref too, duplicate it to nsContentUtils as a util function.
This is a duplication because CSSValue uses stringbuffers and not nsStrings.
While Bug 1356060 - "Just use nsString in URLValueData" converts this use from stringbuffer to nsString, it builds on a bunch of vartype refactoring (nsString vs. nsAString, etc.) which is too much of a headache to deal with just to deduplicate this simple function.
`IsLocalRefURL` is originally designed to be used by URLValue only.
Since we need this function in SVGUseElement::LookupHref too, move it to nsContentUtils as a util function.

* Part 2. Implement nsSVGEffects::GetBaseURLForLocalRef to export local-ref-url-resolving logic.
ResolveURLUsingLocalRef is designed to be internally used by nsSVGEffects::Get-{SVGEffect}-URI functions.
Since we also need it in SVGUseElement::LookupHref, make it public in nsSVGEffects.
* Part 3. Resolve local-ref in SVGUseElement::LookupHref by nsSVGEffects::GetBaseURLForLocalRef.
* Part 4. Reftest for using local-ref as xlink:href value.
This creates a number of stubs and leaves some surrounding code that may be irrelevant (eg. recorded time stamps, status variables).
Stub resolution/removal should be a follow-up to this.
- Use placesutils for favicons
- Switch to the PageThumbs service for thumbnails (like QuickDial)
- Make thumb requests asynchronous
- Update canvas handling
This resolves#731
