Bug 1479235: Stop whitelisting SpecialPowers helper modules for content process startup.

Details
SpecialPowers eagerly loads a bunch of helper modules at content process startup. Those helper modules also pull in some other modules that we don't want loaded in the content process, particularly NetUtil.jsm and FileUtils.jsm. Lazily loading the helper modules also allows us to remove those modules from the whitelist.
