The CommonCreateWindow code requires having a BrowserHost for the tab that's
creating the window, which it tries to get from the requestor's BrowserParent.
For remote BrowserParents, though, there is no BrowserHost, so we need to get
it from the top-level embedder instead.

This works seamlessly most of the time, but in a few corner cases that I
haven't figured out yet, such as when submitting a form with a javascript: URI
and target="_blank", the embedder window global does not return a
BrowserParent. This probably deserves a separate bug.
