Moving multiple bookmarks multiple times in a folder causes an inconsistency between the database and the frontend

Steps to Reproduce
- Open the bookmarks sidebar.
- Select multiple bookmarks.
- Drag and drop the same selection multiple times to change their position in the list.
Actual Results
The selected bookmarks will look like they no longer changed position in the same folder unless the user restarts Firefox or opens and closes the Bookmark Sidebar, whereby they'll see the update. Even though visually it looks like nothing changed, the database does actually move the bookmarks to different positions.
Expected Results
The selected bookmarks should be able to move position regardless of how many times the user moves the same selection in a list.
I suspect it may have something to do with a syncing issue between the database and code in toolkit/components/places/Bookmarks.jsm that is simulating changes of the index positions in JS to avoid calling the database.

This is most likely bug 1557853, where we get the positions wrong. Unfortunately that isn't an easy issue to solve.
