* Fix order of accounts in `eth_accounts` response
The accounts returned by `eth_accounts` were in a fixed order - the
order in which the keyring returned them - rather than ordered with the
selected account first. The accounts returned by the `accountsChanged`
event were ordered with the selected account first, but the same order
wasn't used for `eth_accounts`.
We needed to store additional state in order to determine the correct
account order correctly on all dapps. We had only been storing the
current selected account, but since we also need to determine the
primary account per dapp (i.e. the last "selected" account among the
accounts exposed to that dapp), that wasn't enough.
A `lastSelected` property has been added to each identity in the
preferences controller to keep track of the last selected time. This
property is set to the current time (in milliseconds) whenever a new
selection is made. The accounts returned with `accountsChanged` and by
`eth_accounts` are both ordered by this property.
The `updatePermittedAccounts` function was merged with the internal
methods for responding to account selection, to keep things simpler. It
wasn't called externally anyway, so it wasn't needed in the public API.
* Remove caveat update upon change in selected account
The order of accounts in the caveat isn't meaningful, so the caveat
doesn't need to be updated when the accounts get re-ordered.
* Emit event regardless of account order
Now that we're no longer relying upon the caveat for the account order,
we also have no way of knowing if a particular account selection
resulted in a change in order or not. The notification is now emitted
whenever an exposed account is selected - even if the order stayed the
same.
The inpage provider currently caches the account order, so it can be
relied upon to ignore these redundant events. We were already emiting
redundant `accountsChanged` events in some cases anyway.
Selecting a new account now results in all domains that can view this
change being notified. Previously only the dapp in the active tab was
being notified (though not correctly, as the `origin` was accidentally
set to the MetaMask chrome extension origin).
This handling of account selection has been moved into the background
to minimize the gap between account selection and the notification
being sent out. It's simpler for the UI to not be involved anyway.
