Instructions to reproduce:

test.html:

<html lang="en">
  <head></head>
  <body>
    <select>
      <option>1</option>
      <option>2</option>
    </select>
    <input type="date">
  </body>
</html>

background script:

messenger.windows.create({
    type: "popup",
    url: "test.html"
});

Dropdown and timepicker do not work as expected. If browser.tabs.remote.autostart is toggled to false, it works again.

At least for date, see bug 1690467.

A number of pieces needed to be updated to match Firefox, plus there was a pref disabling the Select actor entirely.

[Approval Request Comment]
Regression caused by (bug #): tb-fission
User impact if declined: HTML <select> controls don't work
Testing completed (on c-c, etc.): on c-c yesterday
Risk to taking this patch (and alternatives if risky): no, but there will be some follow-ups at some stage as the test has an intermittent failure and I've thought of some other things
