The callback parameter will be `undefined` not `null`, I wonder why you changed
it in the comment?

The issue on Microsoft's issue tracker just mentions a null callback. I thought
I'd align the comment. But I can see how that could be confusing. Fixed that in
a followup commit.

       ext.backgroundPage.sendMessage(message, callback);

       ext.backgroundPage.sendMessage(message);
