-/**
- * This module provides wrappers around standard message managers to
- * simplify bidirectional communication. It currently allows a caller to
- * send a message to a single listener, and receive a reply. If there
- * are no matching listeners, or the message manager disconnects before
- * a reply is received, the caller is returned an error.
- *
- * The listener end may specify filters for the messages it wishes to
- * receive, and the sender end likewise may specify recipient tags to
- * match the filters.
- *
- * The message handler on the listener side may return its response
- * value directly, or may return a promise, the resolution or rejection
- * of which will be returned instead. The sender end likewise receives a
- * promise which resolves or rejects to the listener's response.
- *
- *
- * A basic setup works something like this:
- *
- * A content script adds a message listener to its global
- * nsIContentFrameMessageManager, with an appropriate set of filters:
- *
- * {
- * init(messageManager, window, extensionID) {
- * this.window = window;
- *
- * MessageChannel.addListener(
- * messageManager, "ContentScript:TouchContent",
- * this);
- *
- * this.messageFilterStrict = {
- * innerWindowID: getInnerWindowID(window),
- * extensionID: extensionID,
- * };
- *
- * this.messageFilterPermissive = {
- * outerWindowID: getOuterWindowID(window),
- * };
- * },
- *
- * receiveMessage({ target, messageName, sender, recipient, data }) {
- * if (messageName == "ContentScript:TouchContent") {
- * return new Promise(resolve => {
- * this.touchWindow(data.touchWith, result => {
- * resolve({ touchResult: result });
- * });
- * });
- * }
- * },
- * };
- *
- * A script in the parent process sends a message to the content process
- * via a tab message manager, including recipient tags to match its
- * filter, and an optional sender tag to identify itself:
- *
- * let data = { touchWith: "pencil" };
- * let sender = { extensionID, contextID };
- * let recipient = { innerWindowID: tab.linkedBrowser.innerWindowID, extensionID };
- *
- * MessageChannel.sendMessage(
- * tab.linkedBrowser.messageManager, "ContentScript:TouchContent",
- * data, {recipient, sender}
- * ).then(result => {
- * alert(result.touchResult);
- * });
- *
- * Since the lifetimes of message senders and receivers may not always
- * match, either side of the message channel may cancel pending
- * responses which match its sender or recipient tags.
- *
- * For the above client, this might be done from an
- * inner-window-destroyed observer, when its target scope is destroyed:
- *
- * observe(subject, topic, data) {
- * if (topic == "inner-window-destroyed") {
- * let innerWindowID = subject.QueryInterface(Ci.nsISupportsPRUint64).data;
- *
- * MessageChannel.abortResponses({ innerWindowID });
- * }
- * },
- *
- * From the parent, it may be done when its context is being destroyed:
- *
- * onDestroy() {
- * MessageChannel.abortResponses({
- * extensionID: this.extensionID,
- * contextID: this.contextID,
- * });
- * },
- *
