1574543 - Add and use a Fission-compatible utility method to check if a remote type is for web content

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: DOM: Content Processes, task, P2)

Description

[Andrew McCreight [:mccr8]]

There are at least a couple of tests, namely browser_new_file_whitelisted_http_tab.js and browser_navigation_process_swap.js, that check if the remote type is equal to E10sUtils.WEB_REMOTE_TYPE to decide if the remote type is for a content process. With Fission, the remote type will instead start with webIsolated=.

Attachment: Bug 1574543 - Add and use a Fission-compatible utility method to check if a remote type is for web content.

Some tests check that the remote type is "web", but with Fission it
will instead start with "webIsolated=".

I fixed some of the errors in
browser_new_web_tab_in_file_process_pref.js and
browser_httpResponseProcessSelection.js, but there are other failures,
so they remain disabled.

To find these tests, I looked at the places that use E10SUtils.WEB_REMOTE_TYPE.
