Details

(Whiteboard: [userContextId][domsecurity-backlog])

When we implement the about:containers feature, users will be able to create/delete their own custom containers which will be assigned a unique mUserContextId. Even though the probability of a user hitting an integer overflow is really low, we should have code that checks and ensures that we don't reuse a mUserContextId if it's already being used. I don't think we currently have code that checks this, which could lead to container collisions.
