currently our devtools impl creates source actors in script, when
executing scripts in HTMLScriptElement or DedicatedWorkerGlobalScope.
this approach is cumbersome, and it means that many pathways to running
scripts are missed, such as imported ES modules.
with the [SpiderMonkey Debugger
API](https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/js/Debugger/), we can pick
up all of the scripts and all of their sources without any extra code,
as long as we tell it about every global we create (#38333, #38551).
this patch adds a [Debugger#onNewScript()
hook](https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/js/Debugger/Debugger.html#onnewscript-script-global)
to the debugger script, which calls
DebuggerGlobalScope#notifyNewSource() to notify our script system when a
new script runs. if the source is relevant to the file tree in the
Sources tab, script tells devtools to create a source actor.
Testing: adds several new automated devtools tests

to use the [SpiderMonkey Debugger
API](https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/js/Debugger/), we need to
call it from an internal debugger script that we will supply. this
script must run in the same runtime as the debuggee(s), but in a
separate
[compartment](https://udn.realityripple.com/docs/Mozilla/Projects/SpiderMonkey/Compartments)
([more
details](https://hacks.mozilla.org/2020/03/future-proofing-firefoxs-javascript-debugger-implementation/)).
this patch defines a new DebuggerGlobalScope type and a new debugger
script resource. when creating each script thread, we create a debugger
global, load the debugger script from resources/debugger.js, and run
that script in the global to initialise the Debugger API.
subsequent patches will use the debugger script as an RPC mechanism for
the Debugger API.
Testing: no testable effects yet, but will be used in #37667
Fixes: part of #36027
