Add an Infobar style warning for window resize/move

Many (poorly behaved) web sites attempt to move and/or resize your browser window. It is possible to stop this behaviour (cf. dom.disable_window_move_resize) but it would be nice to have an infobar that informed the user that a web page attempted to move/resize the window, and allow it or ignore it (default). This behaviour is similar to the current Pop-up Blocker already present in Firefox. NOTE: it is not clear whether such a feature would be accepted in the tree or if this would need to be done as an extension.

Version 0.1a (Not to be marked yet): [[Media:InfobarPatch.zip]] <br />
'''Release 1 notes:''' <br />
Whenever a site attempts to resize your window, '''if and only if''' your javascript settings is set to disable javascripts from resizing your window would an infobar pop up. The allow / edit options does not work here, but an infobar IS displayed when a site attempts to move/resize your window. <br />
'''Make sure in options->javascript options->allow move/resize is ''disabled''''' <br />
