Details

Bug 1093934 introduced a standalone version of xpcom called libxpcomrt. As discussed during the Mozilla all hands in Orlando (12/2015), the general consensus is that this has caused more of a maintenance headache than it's worth.

At this point we would like to remove it.

Roughly the steps seem to be:
1) Stop building the webrtc unit tests against the standalone lib
2) Stop building the standalone lib
3) Remove all libxpcomrt specific files
4) Remove all #ifdef MOZILLA_XPCOMRT_API references
