Client messages, which are always requests, are dispatched to Actor
instances one at a time via Actor::handle_message. Each request must be
paired with exactly one reply from the same actor the request was sent
to, where a reply is a message with no type (if a message from the
server has a type, it’s a notification, not a reply).
Failing to reply to a request will almost always permanently break that
actor, because either the client gets stuck waiting for a reply, or the
client receives the reply for a subsequent request as if it was the
reply for the current request. If an actor fails to reply to a request,
we want the dispatcher (ActorRegistry::handle_message) to send an error
of type `unrecognizedPacketType`, to keep the conversation for that
actor in sync. Since replies come in all shapes and sizes, we want to
allow Actor types to send replies without having to return them to the
dispatcher.
This patch adds a wrapper type around a client stream that guarantees
request/reply invariants. It allows the dispatcher to check if a valid
reply was sent, and guarantees that if the actor tries to send a reply,
it’s actually a valid reply (see ClientRequest::is_valid_reply). It does
not currently guarantee anything about messages sent via the TcpStream
released via ClientRequest::try_clone_stream or the return value of
ClientRequest::reply. We also send `unrecognizedPacketType`,
`missingParameter`, `badParameterType`, and `noSuchActor` messages per
the
[protocol](https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/devtools/backend/protocol.html#error-packets)
[docs](https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/devtools/backend/protocol.html#packets).
Testing: automated tests all pass, and manual testing looks ok
Fixes: #37683 and at least six bugs, plus one with a different root
cause, plus three with zero impact

*Replaces NetworkEventUpdateMsg with ResourcesUpdatedArray in
HttpResponse case of handle_network_event *
- Adds ResourcesUpdatedArray and UpdateEntry structs in
`devtools/network_handler.rs` to hold an array of updates
(requestHeaders, responseCookies). Updates handle_network_event to use
BrowsingContextActor::resource_available for sending
"resources-updated-array").
- Adds browsing_context_actor_name parameter to handle_network_event to
resolve borrow checker issues and enable BrowsingContextActor lookup.
- Ensures borrow safety by scoping mutable actor access.
Testing: *Does not require test*
Fixes: part of https://github.com/servo/servo/issues/33556

0) Advertise support for the network monitor in the initial protocol communication.
1) Only notify the developer tools server about the final request in an HTTP transaction.
2) Add timing information for connecting to the HTTP server and sending the HTTP request.
3) Reduce duplication between various networkEventUpdate structures by creating a helper function
that merges two JSON structures together. This also corrects the JSON structure so the devtools
client interprets the output correctly.
4) Calculate various header size fields correctly.
5) Remove unnecessary usize->u32 casts by making the appropriate fields usize.
6) Add header values to request and response header messages.
7) Support triggering page reloads via the devtools client.
