Okay, so here's a summary of the changes (see also bug 81371 for an overview of
what's going on):

1. Convert widget into a generic XPCOM component (i.e., using
   NS_IMPL_NSGETMODULE). Not a big deal, just translated the factory
   function into a table, and pulled out the special cases.

2. Since widget will be statically linked into the executable in the
   static build, factor stuff that otherwise happened during DLL attach
   and detach into a separate function that's either called from |DllMain()|
   (in the ``dynamic'' build), or from the nsToolkit ctor/dtor (in the
   ``static'' build).

Could you two (hyatt & kmcclusk) tag team r=/sr= these changes? thanks!
