113243 - Get rid of (Compare|Equals)WithConversion

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: XPCOM, defect)

Description

[jag (Peter Annema)]

Replace them with the appropriate Compare / Equals and convertors.

We can later look into using generators for these, which could do on-demand
character conversions as the search algorithm asks for them. We'd have to expand
string generators though to support this.
