Merge b2g branch into dev

[jedp]

The work done to support marketplace and native implementations (b2g) should be merged into dev.

Once this is done, we can rejoice, as all users will share a single database, and RPs will not need to know in advance whether they are serving native or shimmed; they will only need to include js from persona.org.

This needs to happen before the final b2g code is shipped to vendors to put on phones that go to market. I think we should plan on anticipating this date by about a month to allow for stress-free QA, staging, and deployment.

Bug 836928 tracks this on the bugzilla side.

Is there any creative way we can make this transparent to rps?

Isn't this analogous to the browserid-> persona transition?

@jedp do we have a hard date when this needs to be all merged, happy, and
the train deployed?

Well, the closest thing we have to a hard date is the time when FirefoxOS phones hit the market, which will be this summer.

Preliminary PR #3059 - still work in progress
