Description

We should add tests to make sure that we crash when thread-affined objects we own are accessed on the wrong thread. E.g. that we do not allow UI-thread objects on the NM thread, and that we do allow JS thread affined APIs on the NM thread.

Research direction

No file or existing test entry point is named. Search for the thread-affinity checks and tests using the issue’s UI, NM, and JS thread terms; done means tests cover crashing for an owned UI-thread object on the NM thread and allowing JS-thread-affined APIs on the NM thread.
