Comment (by mikeperry):

 It looks like almost every use of ThirdPartyUtil::GetFirstParty*
 ultimately converts the URI to a hostname using
 ThirdPartyUtil::GetFirstPartyHostForIsolation().

 I only noticed two cases where we don't do this: In the HTTP auth
 stripping check, and in the canvas permissions.

 This means we should be able to make a simple patch to add TLD isolation
 in ThirdPartyUtil::GetFirstPartyHostForIsolation() using Mozilla's
 existing urlbar formatting logic. I will see if I can produce a simple
 patch for this today.
