Address Book Migration: add some thoughts on how to do it.
** This may be required if we change the setup of ab prefs.
* Should we be calling a general nsIAb*Directory or nsIAb*DirectoryFactory migrate function on startup anyway?
 
==== Some thoughts on how to do it ====
 
* AB migration only works for LDAP servers.
* Drop all other ABs during migration apart from LDAP ones
* Can we move AB migration into the profile migration code?
** are these right:
*** Netscape 4.x profiles migrated into new TB/SM can only be done by profile migration
*** Netscape 4.x -> Mozilla version x -> latest TB/SM would have the conversion done at mozilla version x stage, or could be done in the profile migration once new SM has new profile location (suiterunner will provide this) - tb already requires profile migration.
** if not, then can we find something that is always called first/make it called first to do the work for us? e.g. nsLDAPPrefsService::migrate?
