There are various places inside https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/devtools/server/actors/storage.js where nodePrincipal is accessed. Those should be switched with storage principal.

Attachment: Bug 1555861 - Make devtools storage.js module use storage principal;

Storage principal is the principal used for the storage area of a document,
as well as when trying to communicate to other same-origin document instances.
Right now the default is for the storage principal to be equal to the node
principal for all documents, but in the dynamic FPI feature (bug 1549587)
the storage principal for third-party documents will have a member of its
origin attributes set to the eTLD+1 of the domain of the top-level document
in order to 'partition' third-party data across top-level documents from
different sites.

This patch moves the devtools storage actor to use the storage principal
so that when dynamic FPI is enabled, devtools uses the correct principal.
