1572232 - Flush localStorage / sessionStorage when SessionStateAggregator is flushed.

Status: NEW

(GeckoView :: General, enhancement, P3)

Description

[colormatch]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.2; Win64; x64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0

Steps to reproduce:

Currently changes to localStorage do not always get committed when app exits, when GV is closed.
( https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1536797 )

As reducing kFlushTimeoutMs may not be desirable, a request:

Flush localStorage / sessionStorage when SessionStateAggregator is flushed ( https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1538294 )

This way when we have geckoRuntime.shutdown() or geckoSession.setActive(false) the changes to localStorage won't be lost, and we can have a proper shutdown.

The bug has a release status flag that shows some version of Firefox is affected, thus it will be considered confirmed.

Tasks and enhancements should have severity N/A.
