1354123 - Remove customize mode UI grid styling on window edges / behind the hamburger panel (and corresponding animations)

See https://mozilla.invisionapp.com/share/5ZAEYEW8M#/screens/225203398

We'll get rid of the blue/grey background with a white grid and the padding animation (the latter will require some JS code changes, I believe).

This patch removes the transition and extra grid-styled padding/borders on the window, conditional on the MOZ_PHOTON_THEME ifdef which will track nightly until 57. As a result, the "CSS only" CART transition stuff gets omitted, and a cart run has 6 subtests (it has 9 right now). All the remaining tests are either a wash or substantial improvements.

I have 2 questions for jmaher:
- is the subtests disappearing going to break anything?
- is the fact that the .half subtests now log:

13:58:12     INFO -  PID 8864 | [#0] 1-customize-enter.half.TART  Cycles:25  Average:0.00  Median:0.00  stddev:0.00 (NaN%)  stddev-sans-first:0.00
13:58:12     INFO -  PID 8864 | Values: 0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0  0.0

Note in particular the stddev (NaN%) - going to break anything ?

Patch is on top of bug 1354145, explicitly marking that dep.

removing a subtest is no big deal- we should see a change in the summarized number, just make myself and :igoldan aware when this lands and we will copy the change here and will acknowledge this as a test change.

regarding the .half tests, that is not good if we have 0.0- I assume this is the subtest being removed?

Effectively, yes, I'm ifdef-ing out the things that would cause that subtest to measure something, I think. How bad "not good" is this going to be? As in, do I need to write up a patch to ignore these subtests or something, or can we live with it?

we can live with it, it will change the numbers slightly which is ok.  There are many other tests which report 0 values in a subtest.
