We need this for test case that I've written for bug 1634178. Note that this is distinct from bug 1631945, which is intended to give us all pids matching a particular content remote type.

To support this API, we add to the test-support extension:

• We modify the content script to connect to the background script;
• When the content script connects, the background script obtains its tab ID
  and calls into the API to resolve the tab's top-level pid.
• The background script then sends the pid back down to the content script,
  where it is saved.
• This allows subsequent requests for the session's pid to be sent directly to
  the content script via the native port that GeckoSessionTestRule holds for
  each session.
