From profile in bug 1420423 comment 56, I see function string_from_chars_pointer shows up in the profile. It takes a total of 8ms (which is 2% of the regression, and ~0.2% of the total time). It is not a lot of time, but it should be an easy fix anyway.
Feeling tired of staring at profiles and reviewing code... Let me do something simpler :)

Bug 1435944 part 2 - Use atom for identifier media features.

r=me, thanks!

Would it make sense to add an `nsStaticAtom*` overload to `SetAtomIdentValue` itself? It may look nicer.

Otherwise this would need escaping as well.

debug_assert_eq! while you're here?

I think it's fine for this to just do `ident.to_css` or something without needing to allocate it to do CSS escaping, since we know the strings statically.

Worth pointing it out in a comment or something I guess. Also we really need to fix the CSS identifier serialization to not allocate, but that's another matter :(

I thought about this, but I suppose this way is more general since other places may also want `already_AddRefed<nsAtom>` while we just have an `nsStaticAtom`.

I'm not particularly happy with this interface, though... I was thinking about some free function to take an `nsStaticAtom*` rather than having a method... Maybe not that much different.

> debug_assert_eq! while you're here?

I briefly recall there was an RFC which is going to deprecate the `_eq`/`_ne` variants of `assert`s (actually it's RFC 2011), so I don't think it makes much sense to convert this here.

Do we support `to_css` on `Atom`? I thought we don't but if it does we can do that, I guess... Given no content-exposed media feature actually uses identifier.

And I'm not keen on having the old style system to have the same behavior as stylo in this case... but I guess I can have it escaped.

Apparently `Atom` doesn't implement `ToCss`, so we need to use string... Anyway, I don't consider the performance here very critical, since this is really internal-only, and I don't think people want to serialize media query a lot either...

Sounds good, it doesn't really matter much.

Yeah, there is, but it hasn't got so much traction... Actually a contributor did it in https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/autoland/rev/fd7764a996d8, so...

Ok, sounds good then :)

Bug 1435944 part 1 - Add ToAddRefed() for nsStaticAtom.

I'm assuming here that the machinery we want to pass `staticAtom->ToAddRefed()` to already deals with `already_AddRefed` dynamic atoms elsewhere, so we don't really want to add another overload (and more stuff on the Rust side)?

So the reason of adding this is that, there are functions taking `already_AddRefed<nsAtom>` for transferring ownership without changing the refcount, and normal `nsAtom*` can just use `do_AddRef(atom)` in case it's a weak reference. However, this is not possible for `nsStaticAtom` because it has `AddRef`/`Release` explicitly deleted, so we need to cast it to `nsAtom*` first to create an `already_AddRef` anyway.

I see what did you mean now when I'm rebasing my patch... ok, then I'll just change based on the new code here.
