Due to recent refactoring of the DOMEvent code (see #238773) the .detail
attribute on "overflow" and "underflow" events is missing. This is critical for
implementing things like horizontal tree scrolling (see #212789).

In nsEventListenerManager::CreateEvent, NS_SCROLLPORT_EVENT needs to be added to
the switch statement, and should call NS_NewDOMUIEvent().

Will attach a patch. 

Reproducible: Always

Attachment: Fix for bug

This patch adds the necessary line. Requesting review of bryner since he
reviewed the refactoring patch (which caused the regression, ie: bug# 238773)

Putting on the radar, 'cause I would really like bug 212789 for 1.8b2.
