Why does Firefox use ChromiumCDMAdapter for GMP in source code? Why would anything related to Chromium be used in Mozilla?

As any modern software, Firefox relies a lot on third party open-sourced libraries. Especially in the video/media/graphics areas. Widewine and Skia are examples of such multiplatform libraries.
