Details

Account Manager requires information about which realm the top-level document in a browser belongs to.

Per the spec, methods for determining the realm include:

* a header returned in the toplevel document.
* a Link element in /.well-known/host-meta on the same domain which points to a valid AMCD

We should abstract out the realm detection code from the rest of the Account Manager backend, since it would be useful for other parts of the browser to also know what the active realm is.  The realm detector should probably use observers to notify the active realm.
