Mukilan Thiyagarajan 2ccd9f54ad libservo: Let UserContentManager be per WebView and add basic support for mutations. (#41352) ...

This change moves the `UserContentManager` abstraction from the
`ServoBuilder` to `WebViewBuilder` so that embedders can inject content
for each `WebView` independently. It also adds basic support for runtime
mutations to the `UserContentManager` API. Only adding new scripts is
currently supported, but future changes will add support for both other
mutations such as removal of scripts and addition & removal of
stylesheets. Future changes could also optimize the way mutations are
propagated to `ScriptThread`s by sending just the "delta" rather than
the whole `UserContents` structure for each mutation.

The `UserContentManager` now becomes just a convenient handle for the
embedders to invoke the mutation API while the actual management of the
manager's content is handled by the Constellation. The mutations are
relayed to the constellation via messages. The change also separates the
serialized version containg the user contents into a new `UserContent`
structure so that the API cannot be misused.

Testing: New unit tests have been added for the different scenarios
involving UserContentManager.
