 Our mozIFirstPartyUtil.getFirstPartyURI should log to the error console
 and emit a failure code if it either fails to get a URI, or if that URI
 has a NULL hostname. This will simplify the code that makes use of the
 API.

 If the API call fails for ImageCache consumers, we should load but not
 cache the image (if possible). If the API call fails for DOM Storage, the
 DOM Storage calls should probably also fail. For the canvas, we should
 also fail the calls (See also #7265 for related canvas changes).
