Details

(Whiteboard: [form autofill:V2][Misc.]) 

There are some documentation things we should do to make it easier for people to maintain autofill in the future:
* Ensure each non-trivial file has a file-level comment explaining the overall purpose and which process it runs in.
* Write a README for the directory and/or document with rst files for https://gecko.readthedocs.io/en/latest/browser/browser/index.html to give a higher level overview of the architecture
** Ensure that the influence of Chromium is clearly documented so that Chromium fixes can be ported to the relevant Fx code
Component: Form Manager → Form Autofill
Let's move this to V2 scope.
