Default prefs are no longer read automatically, so we need to do it
manually. Preferences may not be read before extensions load, so they
should wait for Zotero.Schema.schemaUpdatePromise or
Zotero.uiReadyPromise before initializing.
This changes the way item types, item fields, creator types, and CSL
mappings are defined and handled, in preparation for updated types and
fields.
Instead of being predefined in SQL files or code, type/field info is
read from a bundled JSON file shared with other parts of the Zotero
ecosystem [1], referred to as the "global schema". Updates to the
bundled schema file are automatically applied to the database at first
run, allowing changes to be made consistently across apps.
When syncing, invalid JSON properties are now rejected instead of being
ignored and processed later, which will allow for schema changes to be
made without causing problems in existing clients. We considered many
alternative approaches, but this approach is by far the simplest,
safest, and most transparent to the user.
For now, there are no actual changes to types and fields, since we'll
first need to do a sync cut-off for earlier versions that don't reject
invalid properties.
For third-party code, the main change is that type and field IDs should
no longer be hard-coded, since they may not be consistent in new
installs. For example, code should use `Zotero.ItemTypes.getID('note')`
instead of hard-coding `1`.

- nsIURI is now immutable, so it's necessary to use nsIURIMutator via
mutate() to change it
- .path is replaced with .pathQueryRef
- Only nsIURL has .fileName
The XBL prefwindow bindings are removed in Firefox 60, so this adds them
back, along with necessary styling, to allow the existing preferences to
work until the preferences are rewritten with React. The preferences.xml
file in the Mozilla source has platform ifdefs, but since this is a
temporary hack I've just duplicated the file for each platform with the
necessary lines included.
I haven't yet tested the styling on Windows/Linux.
In particular, remove code related to opening/closing the Zotero pane,
which affects tests. The pane is now opened by default in Firefox, which
brings its behavior closer to the main version.
As of Fx60, XPathResult is no longer available as nsIDOMXPathResult in
XPCOM, so just shim its constants, which are all we need, when adding it
to the sandbox.
`nsIFilePicker::show()` is removed in Firefox 60 in favor of `open()`,
which takes a callback (and apparently has been preferred for a long
time).
There's no point switching to that, so this module is a version of
nsIFilePicker with an async `show()` that returns a promise and some
XPCOM-isms replaced (e.g., string paths instead of nsIFile).
Legacy/unsigned add-on warnings are now hidden via CSS in the Firefox
build, so remove the code that tries to do that, and instead add a class
to any other warnings so they can be selectively shown.
StopIteration is no longer supported in Firefox 60, so instead of taking
a generator function that might throw StopIteration for the second
parameter, take a function that is passed to iterator.forEach() that
receives an OS.File.DirectoryIterator.Entry for each directory entry. If
the function returns a promise, it's waited for.
Also update other direct uses of OS.File.DirectoryIterator to remove
StopIteration use.
nsIURL doesn't seem to work anymore, so add Zotero.Utilities.parseURL(),
which uses the `url` package from NPM and adds fileName, fileExtension,
and fileBaseName.
fetch_xulrunner.sh updates the built-in path to point to this file, but
it's not currently being read properly for some reason (and I'm not sure
it does anything we need).
- getStringPref/setStringPref are now used for strings instead of
getComplexValue/setComplexValue
- Remove nsIPrefBranch2 reference
- If there was a pref failure during initialization, nothing was logged
to the terminal
- The Mozilla CommonJS loader is no longer available, so bundle the
Fx52 version of it
- Strict mode is enforced
- `this` is only defined as a global object in .jsm files, not .js files
- `this` can't be converted to a string for BackstagePass test, so check
for presence of Components.utils.import instead
- The return value from import() is no longer available
The menu includes all user interface options from the General
preferences (now removed from the preferences), toggles for the
collections pane, item pane, and tag selector, and, at long last, a
toggle for recursive collections ("Display Items from Subcollections").
The collections pane and item pane no longer reopen automatically when
restarting Zotero. People might still close them by mistake and not find
this menu, but we'll see how it goes.
Closes#1372
