Currently only Windows can take advantage of this.
The reason why the arrays of deunified sources are named like that in
Spidermonkey's moz.build is to avoid UnsortedErrors in python. There's probably
a better way to handle that, but I just want something that works for now.
And yes, the deunified sources will be reunified if LTO is disabled.
It seems that if we're going to enable JS_SHARED_LIBRARY, we need ICU to be a
shared library too in order to prevent code duplication in mozjs.dll bloating
it to a whopping 21 MB.
This unfortunately means we have to fold icudata back to icu itself. But since
icudata is still separated from libxul (which is what really matters for #1451),
I think this is a fair compromise.
Building ICU as shared is offered as an option via --enable-shared-icu. But
technically you really need --enable-shared-icu if you're going to use
--enable-shared-js. Unfortunately I can't make configure exit with an error if
MOZ_SHARED_ICU is not defined when JS_SHARED_LIBRARY is enabled, because options
are controlled by different configure scripts (icu is based on bash, while js is
based on python), and I have no idea how to pass MOZ_SHARED_ICU to js's
moz.configure.

This allows the nsIUserinfo component to be disabled with --disable-userinfo in mozconfig
at build time, but leaves it on by default to avoid any compatibility issues in existing
applications.
