1522370 - Lazily report anti-tracking warnings to console

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Protections UI, enhancement)

See this profile: http://bit.ly/2FULtlL

We can see that ReportToConsole can be expensive, for example it can incur a call to NS_NewURI, which would cause us to parse a URI from APIs like document.cookie (which can be called quite frequently e.g. from loops inside web pages).

We need to defer these calls to a time when we don't have something better to do, rather than when we have active web page JS code to run!

Oops, when rebasing this I accidentally pushed the changes for bug 1493361 which I had in my local tree :-(
