I'm moving this to target M9, Necko will be enabled somewhere during late M8 or
early M9.  We will need to get on this and it cannot be postponed past the M9
milestone.

Changing all Networking Library/Browser bugs to Networking-Core component for
Browser.

Occasionally, Bugzilla will burp and cause Verified bugs to reopen when I do
this in a bulk change.  If this happens, I will fix. ;-)
