The main goal of this work is around making the DevTools codebase more
approachable for contributors.

We're not explicitly setting out to make reusing the front end easier
from non-Firefox, but certainly moving out of /browser is one nudge in
the right direction down that path.

I'm guessing we'll still have some browser dependencies for the
moment, but I'll take a look at this as I work on the file moves.
