mIsChildInitialized may be true even if mParent is a text node. Therefore, if mIsChildInitialized is true and mParent is a text node, this always returns true because mChild is always nullptr.
Unfortunately, I found this bug when I work on another bug. I'm not sure how to meet actual symptom.

Bug 1445929 - Make Editor(Raw)DOMPoint::IsEndOfContainer() check if mParent is container node before checking mChild

Approval Request Comment
[Feature/Bug causing the regression]:
Regression of bug 1419745.

[User impact if declined]:
Not sure, we don't have actual bug report.

The bug is, IsEndOfContainer() returns true if Editor(Raw)DOMPoint's container is text node or something other data nodes and offset is even not same as length of the text node. So, callers of IsEndOfContainer() may set the container to a text node, the check won't work as expected.

[Is this code covered by automated tests?]:
No.

[Has the fix been verified in Nightly?]:
Yes since this bug blocked to fix bug 1445569.

[Needs manual test from QE? If yes, steps to reproduce]: 
No.

[List of other uplifts needed for the feature/fix]:
None.

[Is the change risky?]:
No.

[Why is the change risky/not risky?]:
Before IsEndOfContainer() does something complicated, this patch inserts an early-return block for non-container nodes such as text node.

[String changes made/needed]:
No.

If there's no known user impact, and this is already on release, what's the downside of letting this ride the trains?

We still don't have enough testcases for editor module. But this is actual regression of API in editor. So, callers of this method in editor assumes that it checks if the point is end of a node even when the node is a text node.

Unfortunately, there are a lot of callers:
https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-beta/search?q=IsEndOfContainer&redirect=false
And some of them look treating DOM point in text node (e.g., EditorBase::DeleteSelectionAndPrepareToCreateNode(), HTMLEditRules::ReturnInParagraph()). So, I believe that in some situation, this bug causes something odd behavior.
