Details

Currently the child process has access to a docshell's session history object and all of its entries. With Fission and session history in the parent, we'd like to move away from having that access in the child process. We should move the docshell code to use IPC messages that don't require entries, but mostly take relative indices.
There's also the case of the web-exposed History object. Ever since bug 1563587 most of the access in there is asynchronous, so should be easy to move over. The exception is the .length getter, which we'll try to fake (see bug 1436489).
