240471 - nsContentList doesn't handle mRootContent going away

Status: NEW

With JS access this is not a _huge_ problem, since we'll hold a ref to
mRootContent while the list's JSObject lives (see bug 153519).  But we should
still fix this.

Now that we can notify content lists that their root has gone away, we just need
to hook up a mechanism to do said notification at the right time.
