BB 43843: Do not bootstrap MacOS packaging tools if available

Do not bootstrap MacOS packing tools if they are already available in
the environment. This can be uplifted.

BB 41454: Move focus after calling openPreferences for a sub-category.

Temporary fix until mozilla bug 1799153 gets a patch upstream.

BB 43072: Add aria label and description to moz-message-bar.

Ensures that moz-message-bar, including notifications, are announced on
Orca.

This addresses upstream bugzilla bug 1895857 and should likely be
replaced when it is fixed.

BB 42739: Use the brand name for profile error messages.

Some messages in profileSelection.properties use gAppData->name as
variable inputs. However, gAppData->name is still "Firefox" for our
base-browser builds, rather than the user-facing browser name. We swap
these instances with the displayed brand name instead.

BB 41483: Remove the firefox override for appstrings.properties

Remove this patch after upstream bugzilla bug 1790187

BB 41459: WebRTC fails to build under mingw (Part 1)

- properly define NOMINMAX for just MSVC builds

BB 42758: Fix WebRTC build errors.

BB 41854: Allow overriding download spam protection.

BB 42832: Download spam prevention exemption for browser extensions.

BB 42220: Allow for more file types to be forced-inline.

Firefox allows to open some files in the browser without any
confirmation, but this will result in a disk leak, because the file will
be downloaded to the temporary directory first (and not deleted, in some
cases).
A preference allows PDFs to be opened without being downloaded to disk.
So, we introduce a similar one to do the same for all the files that are
set to be opened automatically in the browser.

BB 42835: Create an actor to filter file data transfers

BB 42728: Modify ./mach lint to skip unused linters

BB 43615: Add Gitlab Issue and Merge Request templates

BB 42305: Add script to combine translation files across versions.

BB 43535: Enable tests

Add CI for Base Browser

Base Browser's .mozconfigs.

Bug 17858: Cannot create incremental MARs for hardened builds.
Define HOST_CFLAGS, etc. to avoid compiling programs such as mbsdiff
(which is part of mar-tools and is not distributed to end-users) with
ASan.

Bug 21849: Don't allow SSL key logging.

Bug 25741 - TBA: Disable features at compile-time

Define MOZ_ANDROID_NETWORK_STATE and MOZ_ANDROID_LOCATION

Bug 27623 - Export MOZILLA_OFFICIAL during desktop builds

This fixes a problem where some preferences had the wrong default value.
Also see bug 27472 where we made a similar fix for Android.

Bug 29859: Disable HLS support for now

Bug 30463: Explicitly disable MOZ_TELEMETRY_REPORTING

Bug 32493: Disable MOZ_SERVICES_HEALTHREPORT

Bug 33734: Set MOZ_NORMANDY to False

Bug 33851: Omit Parental Controls.

Bug 40252: Add --enable-rust-simd to our tor-browser mozconfig files

Bug 41584: Move some configuration options to base-browser level

Tweaks to the build system

Bug 40857: Modified the fat .aar creation file

This is a workaround to build fat .aars with the compiling enviornment
disabled.
Mozilla does not use a similar configuration, but either runs a Firefox
build and discards its output, or uses artifacts build.

We might switch to artifact builds too, and drop this patch, or write a
better one to upstream. But until then we need this patch.

See also https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1763770.

Bug 41458: Prevent `mach package-multi-locale` from actually creating a package

macOS builds need some files to be moved around with
./mach package-multi-locale to create multi-locale packages.
The required command isn't exposed through any other mach command.
So, we patch package-multi-locale both to prevent it from failing when
doing official builds and to detect any future changes on it.

BB 29320: Replace the gnu target with gnullvm for Rust.

BB 42616: Remove VideoCaptureTest.kt.

This is a workaround to fix the GeckoView build with WebRTC disabled.
We should replace this workaround with a proper solution, that
excludes this test when MOZ_WEBRTC is undefined/False.

BB 41108: Remove privileged macOS installation from 102

BB 41149: Re-enable DLL injection protection in all builds not just nightlies

BB 43092: Disable wayland by default in Base Browser.

BB 24796: Comment out excess permissions from GeckoView

The GeckoView AndroidManifest.xml is not preprocessed unlike Fennec's
manifest, so we can't use the ifdef preprocessor guards around the
permissions we do not want. Commenting the permissions is the
next-best-thing.

BB 28125: Prevent non-Necko network connections

BB 12974: Disable NTLM and Negotiate HTTP Auth

The Mozilla bugs: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1046421,
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1261591, tor-browser#27602

BB 40717: Hide Windows SSO in settings

BB 16285: Exclude ClearKey system for now

In the past the ClearKey system had not been compiled when specifying
--disable-eme. But that changed and it is even bundled nowadays (see:
Mozilla's bug 1300654). We don't want to ship it right now as the use
case for it is not really visible while the code had security
vulnerabilities in the past.

BB 21431: Clean-up system extensions shipped in Firefox

Only ship the pdfjs extension.

BB 33852: Clean up about:logins (LockWise) to avoid mentioning sync, etc.

Hide elements on about:logins that mention sync, "Firefox LockWise", and
Mozilla's LockWise mobile apps.

Disable the "Create New Login" button when security.nocertdb is true.

BB 41457: Remove Mozilla permissions

Bug 40025: Remove Mozilla add-on install permissions

BB 41662: Disable about:sync-logs

Even though we disable sync by default with
`identity.fxaccounts.enabled`, this about: page is still avilable.
We could throw an exception on the constructor of the related
component, but it would result only in an error in the console, without
a visible "this address does not look right" error page.
If we fix the issues with MOZ_SERVICES_SYNC, we can restore the
component.

BB 42716: Disable unwanted about: pages

BB 26353: Prevent speculative connect that violated FPI.

Connections were observed in the catch-all circuit when
the user entered an https or http URL in the URL bar, or
typed a search term.

BB 31740: Remove some unnecessary RemoteSettings instances

More concretely, SearchService.jsm 'hijack-blocklists' and
url-classifier-skip-urls.

Avoid creating instance for 'anti-tracking-url-decoration'.

If prefs are disabling their usage, avoid creating instances for
'cert-revocations' and 'intermediates'.

Do not ship JSON dumps for collections we do not expect to need. For
the ones in the 'main' bucket, this prevents them from being synced
unnecessarily (the code in remote-settings does so for collections
in the main bucket for which a dump or local data exists). For the
collections in the other buckets, we just save some size by not
shipping their dumps.

We also clear the collections database on the v2 -> v3 migration.

BB 41092: Add a RemoteSettings JSON dump for query-stripping

BB 42730: Patch RemoteSettings to use only local dumps as a data source

fixup! BB 42730: Patch RemoteSettings to use only local dumps as a data source

TB 43852: Fix rebase errors.

BB 41635: Disable the Normandy component

Do not include Normandy at all whenever MOZ_NORMANDY is False.

BB 30541: Disable WebGL readPixel() for web content

Related Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1428034

BB 28369: Stop shipping pingsender executable

BB 42630: Disable LaterRun module.

BB 41599: Always return an empty string as network ID

Firefox computes an internal network ID used to detect network changes
and act consequently (e.g., to improve WebSocket UX).
However, there are a few ways to get this internal network ID, so we
patch them out, to be sure any new code will not be able to use them and
possibly link users.

We also sent a patch to Mozilla to seed the internal network ID, to
prevent any accidental leak in the future.
Upstream: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1817756

BB 43386: Use Firefox in the UA in RFP-exempt request.

XHR requests initiated by extensions are exempt from RFP.
Therefore, they report the actual app name, instead of Firefox, and the
actual Firefox minor version.

This happens whenever the app name has been customized and does not
match a hardcoded "Firefox".

BB 41327: Disable UrlbarProviderInterventions

BB 42037: Disable about:firefoxview page

Firefox preference overrides.

fixup! Firefox preference overrides.

TB 43989: Disable the preference for the AI chatbot in the new sidebar.

BB 43140: Tighten up fonts on Linux.

We ship a fontconfig configuration to esnure all Linux users have the
same defaults and reduce the chances of fingerprinting.
We used to add this file in tor-browser-build, but some users might
skip it by using the browser executable without the wrapper script.
Therefore, we decided to activate the file with the FontConfig API
instead of the environment variables.

Bug 41043: Hardcode the UI font on Linux

The mechanism to choose the UI font does not play well with our
fontconfig configuration. As a result, the final criterion to choose
the font for the UI was its version.

Since we hardcode Arimo as a default sans-serif on preferences, we use
it also for the UI. FontConfig will fall back to some other font for
scripts Arimo does not cover as expected (we tested with Japanese).

Bug 43141: Hardcode system-ui to Arimo.

BB 43322: Customize the font visibility lists.

Customize the lists of fonts to assign base visibility to in
base browser and derivatives.

Also, rename the files with the upstream lists, to make sure we do not
use them by mistake.

BB 30605: Honor privacy.spoof_english in Android

This checks `privacy.spoof_english` whenever `setLocales` is
called from Fenix side and sets `intl.accept_languages`
accordingly.

Bug 40198: Expose privacy.spoof_english pref in GeckoView

BB 42562: Normalized the Accepted Languages on Android.

The OS language might be outside the list of actually supported
languages and it might leak the user's region.
Therefore, we force the locale reported in Accept-Language to match one
we support with translations, even when it means using a not exact
region tag.

BB 40171: Make WebRequest and GeckoWebExecutor First-Party aware

BB 26345: Hide tracking protection UI

fixup! BB 26345: Hide tracking protection UI

TB 43947: Prevent import of ContentBlockingPrefs.

BB 43109: Hide Firefox Relay from settings.

This should remain disabled, see tor-browser#42814.

BB 42777: Hide Website Privacy Preferences.

We hide the Website Privacy Preferences section, which controls the
"global privacy control" (GPC) and "do not track" (DNT) settings.

BB 42070: Hide "Use smooth scrolling" from settings

BB 18905: Hide unwanted items from help menu

Bug 25660: Remove the "New Private Window" option

BB 41739: Remove "Website appearance" from about:preferences.

It is ignored because of RFP and it is confusing for users.

BB 43117: Hide "Always underline links" from settings.

BB 42774: Always hide the third-pary certs UI.

BB 43118: Hide feature recommendation (CFR) settings.

BB 9173: Change the default Firefox profile directory to be relative.

This commit makes Firefox look for the default profile directory in a
directory relative to the binary path.
The directory can be specified through the --with-relative-data-dir.
This is relative to the same directory as the firefox main binary for
Linux and Windows.

On macOS, we remove Contents/MacOS from it.
Or, in other words, the directory is relative to the application
bundle.

This behavior can be overriden at runtime, by placing a file called
system-install adjacent to the firefox main binary (also on macOS).

BB 42773: Replace ~ with the original home.

In Bug 93141, Mozilla started sending users to their home when they type
~ in the URL bar.
On Linux, we change $HOME for various reason, therefore you would be
redirected to the spoofed home directory when typing ~.
So, we check if the original home directory is known, and use that,
instead.

BB 27604: Fix addon issues when moving the profile directory

Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1429838

BB 13028: Prevent potential proxy bypass cases.

It looks like these cases should only be invoked in the NSS command line
tools, and not the browser, but I decided to patch them anyway because there
literally is a maze of network function pointers being passed around, and it's
very hard to tell if some random code might not pass in the proper proxied
versions of the networking code here by accident.

Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1433509

BB 40309: Avoid using regional OS locales

Avoid regional OS locales if the pref
`intl.regional_prefs.use_os_locales` is false but RFP is enabled.

BB 29745: Limit remote access to content accessible resources

BB 33955: When copying an image only copy the image contents to the clipboard

BB 41791: Omit the source URL when copying page contents to the clipboard

BB 43196: Remove the vendor name from media notifications on Linux.

Firefox shows "vendor remoteName" as a title of the "... is playing
media" notification on Linux.
However, for our browser the remote name is enough, and prepending the
vendor to it creates a string users usually never see.

Base Browser strings

This commit adds all the strings needed by following Base Browser
patches.

fixup! Base Browser strings

TB 43905: Add base-browser.ftl to about:addons.

BB 42583: Modify moz-support-link for Base Browser.

BB 41369: Improve Firefox language settings for multi-lingual packages

Change the language selector to be sorted by language code, rather than
name, and to display the language code to the user.

Bug 41372: Handle Japanese as a special case in preferences on macOS

Japanese is treated in a special way on macOS. However, seeing the
Japanese language tag could be confusing for users, and moreover the
language name is not localized correctly like other langs.

Bug 41378: Tell users that they can change their language at the first start

With multi-lingual builds, Tor Browser matches the user's system
language, but some users might want to change it.
So, we tell them that it is possible, but only once.

BB 40283: Workaround for the file upload bug

since the module is now excluded.

BB 4234: Use the Firefox Update Process for Base Browser.

Windows: disable "runas" code path in updater (15201).
Windows: avoid writing to the registry (16236).
Also includes fixes for tickets 13047, 13301, 13356, 13594, 15406,
  16014, 16909, 24476, and 25909.

Also fix bug 27221: purge the startup cache if the Base Browser
version changed (even if the Firefox version and build ID did
not change), e.g., after a minor Base Browser update.

Also fix 32616: Disable GetSecureOutputDirectoryPath() functionality.

Bug 26048: potentially confusing "restart to update" message

Within the update doorhanger, remove the misleading message that mentions
that windows will be restored after an update is applied, and replace the
"Restart and Restore" button label with an existing
"Restart to update Tor Browser" string.

Bug 28885: notify users that update is downloading

Add a "Downloading Base Browser update" item which appears in the
hamburger (app) menu while the update service is downloading a MAR
file. Before this change, the browser did not indicate to the user
that an update was in progress, which is especially confusing in
Tor Browser because downloads often take some time. If the user
clicks on the new menu item, the about dialog is opened to allow
the user to see download progress.

As part of this fix, the update service was changed to always show
update-related messages in the hamburger menu, even if the update
was started in the foreground via the about dialog or via the
"Check for Tor Browser Update" toolbar menu item. This change is
consistent with the Tor Browser goal of making sure users are
informed about the update process.

Removed #28885 parts of this patch which have been uplifted to Firefox.

BB 42061: Create an alpha update channel.

BB 41682: Add base-browser nightly mar signing key

BB 41603: Customize the creation of MOZ_SOURCE_URL

MOZ_SOURCE_URL is created by combining MOZ_SOURCE_REPO and
MOZ_SOURCE_CHANGESET.
But the code takes for granted that it refers to a Hg instance, so it
combines them as `$MOZ_SOURCE_REPO/rev/$MOZ_SOURCE_CHANGESET`.
With this commit, we change this logic to combine them to create a URL
that is valid for GitLab.
$MOZ_SOURCE_CHANGESET needs to be a commit hash, not a branch or a tag.
If that is needed, we could use /-/tree/, instead of /-/commit/.

BB 42438: Tweaks to the migration wizard.

Remove the items not compatible with our features (such as history) from
the migration wizard.

On Linux, allow to specify an alternative home directory, since we
usually change $HOME in our startup script.

BB 40069: Add helpers for message passing with extensions

BB 41598: Prevent NoScript from being removed/disabled.

Bug 40253: Explicitly allow NoScript in Private Browsing mode.

BB 41581: Hide NoScript extension's toolbar button by default.

This hides it from both the toolbar and the unified extensions panel.

We also hide the unified-extension-button if the panel would be empty:
not including the NoScript button when it is hidden. As a result, this
will be hidden by default until a user installs another extension (or
shows the NoScript button and unpins it).

BB 41834: Hide "Can't Be Removed - learn more" menu line for uninstallable add-ons

BB 40925: Implemented the Security Level component

This component adds a new Security Level toolbar button which visually
indicates the current global security level via icon (as defined by the
extensions.torbutton.security_slider pref), a drop-down hanger with a
short description of the current security level, and a new section in
the about:preferences#privacy page where users can change their current
security level. In addition, the hanger and the preferences page will
show a visual warning when the user has modified prefs associated with
the security level and provide a one-click 'Restore Defaults' button to
get the user back on recommended settings.

Bug 40125: Expose Security Level pref in GeckoView

fixup! BB 40925: Implemented the Security Level component

TB 2176: Rebrand Firefox to TorBrowser

See also Bugs #5194, #7187, #8115, #8219.

This patch does some basic renaming of Firefox to TorBrowser. The rest of the
branding is done by images and icons.

Also fix bug 27905.

Bug 25702: Update Tor Browser icon to follow design guidelines

- Updated all of the branding in /browser/branding/official with new 'stable'
icon series.
- Updated /extensions/onboarding/content/img/tor-watermark.png with new icon and
add the source svg in the same directory
- Copied /browser/branding/official over /browser/branding/nightly and the new
/browser/branding/alpha directories. Replaced content with 'nightly' and
'alpha' icon series.
Updated VisualElements_70.png and VisualElements_150.png with updated icons in
each branding directory (fixes #22654)
- Updated firefox.VisualElementsManfiest.xml with updated colors in each
branding directory
- Added firefox.svg to each branding directory from which all the other icons
are derived (apart from document.icns and document.ico)
- Added default256.png and default512.png icons
- Updated aboutTBUpdate.css to point to branding-aware icon128.png and removed
original icon
- Use the Tor Browser icon within devtools/client/themes/images/.

Bug 30631: Blurry Tor Browser icon on macOS app switcher

It would seem the png2icns tool does not generate correct icns files and
so on macOS the larger icons were missing resulting in blurry icons in
the OS chrome. Regenerated the padded icons in a macOS VM using
iconutil.

Bug 28196: preparations for using torbutton tor-browser-brand.ftl

A small change to Fluent FileSource class is required so that we
can register a new source without its supported locales being
counted as available locales for the browser.

Bug 31803: Replaced about:debugging logo with flat version

Bug 21724: Make Firefox and Tor Browser distinct macOS apps

When macOS opens a document or selects a default browser, it sometimes
uses the CFBundleSignature. Changing from the Firefox MOZB signature to
a different signature TORB allows macOS to distinguish between Firefox
and Tor Browser.

Bug 32092: Fix Tor Browser Support link in preferences

For bug 40562, we moved onionPattern* from bug 27476 to here, as
about:tor needs these files but it is included earlier.

Bug 41278: Create Tor Browser styled pdf logo similar to the vanilla Firefox one

Bug 42088: New application icons (used in-app and on linux).

Bug 42087: New application icons (windows).

TB 42583: Modify moz-support-link for Tor Browser.

TB 40209: Implement Basic Crypto Safety

Adds a CryptoSafety actor which detects when you've copied a crypto
address from a HTTP webpage and shows a warning.

Closes #40209.

Bug 40428: Fix string attribute names

TB3: Tor Browser's official .mozconfigs.

Also:
Add an --enable-tor-browser-data-outside-app-dir configure option

Add --with-tor-browser-version configure option

Bug 31457: disable per-installation profiles

The dedicated profiles (per-installation) feature does not interact
well with our bundled profiles on Linux and Windows, and it also causes
multiple profiles to be created on macOS under TorBrowser-Data.

Bug 31935: Disable profile downgrade protection.

Since Tor Browser does not support more than one profile, disable
the prompt and associated code that offers to create one when a
version downgrade situation is detected.

Add --enable-tor-browser-update build option

Bug 40793: moved Tor configuration options from old-configure.in to moz.configure

Bug 41584: Move some configuration options to base-browser level

TB 41340: Enable TOR_BROWSER_NIGHTLY_BUILD features for dev and nightly builds

tor-browser#41285: Enable fluent warnings.

TB 40562: Added Tor Browser preferences to 000-tor-browser.js

Before reordering patches, we used to keep the Tor-related patches
(torbutton and tor-launcher) at the beginning.
After that issue, we decided to move them towards the end.

In addition to that, we have decided to move Tor Browser-only
preferences there, too, to make Base Browser-only fixups easier to
apply.

TB 13252: Customize profile management on macOS

On macOS we allow both portable mode and system installation.
However, in the latter case, we customize Firefox's directories to
match the hierarchy we use for the portable mode.

Also, display an informative error message if the TorBrowser-Data
directory cannot be created due to an "access denied" or a
"read only volume" error.

TB 40933: Add tor-launcher functionality

Bug 41926: Reimplement the control port

Lox integration

fixup! Lox integration

TB 43765: Disable lox on alpha channel.

TB 40597: Implement TorSettings module

- migrated in-page settings read/write implementation from about:preferences#tor
  to the TorSettings module
- TorSettings initially loads settings from the tor daemon, and saves them to
  firefox prefs
- TorSettings notifies observers when a setting has changed; currently only
  QuickStart notification is implemented for parity with previous preference
  notify logic in about:torconnect and about:preferences#tor

TB 42247: Android helpers for the TorProvider

GeckoView is missing some API we use on desktop for the integration
with the tor daemon, such as subprocess.
Therefore, we need to implement them in Java and plumb the data
back and forth between JS and Java.

TB 8324: Prevent DNS proxy bypasses caused by Drag&Drop

Bug 41613: Skip Drang & Drop filtering for DNS-safe URLs

TB 25741: TBA: Disable GeckoNetworkManager

The browser should not need information related to the network
interface or network state, tor should take care of that.

TB 40807: Added QRCode.js to toolkit/modules

TB 31286: Implementation of bridge, proxy, and firewall settings in about:preferences#connection

This patch adds a new about:preferences#connection page which allows
modifying bridge, proxy, and firewall settings from within Tor Browser.
All of the functionality present in tor-launcher's Network
Configuration panel is present:

 - Setting built-in bridges
 - Requesting bridges from BridgeDB via moat
 - Using user-provided bridges
 - Configuring SOCKS4, SOCKS5, and HTTP/HTTPS proxies
 - Setting firewall ports
 - Viewing and Copying Tor's logs
 - The Networking Settings in General preferences has been removed

TB 43929: Update about:tor override page logic for ESR 140.

Unlike ESR 128, we do not try and move the startPage logic to earlier in
the method since it would complicate the patch and upstream's logic.
Instead, we delay out duplicate about:tor logic until the end of the
method.

fixup! TB 7494: Create local home page for TBB.

TB 43930: Centre-align the onionize toggle.

TB 41668: Tweaks to the Base Browser updater for Tor Browser

This commit was once part of "Bug 4234: Use the Firefox Update Process
for Tor Browser.".
However, some parts of it were not needed for Base Browser and some
derivative browsers.
Therefore, we extracted from that commit the parts for Tor Browser
legacy, and we add them back to the patch set with this commit.

TB 12647: Support symlinks in the updater.

TB 32658: Create a new MAR signing key

It's time for our rotation again: Move the backup key in the front
position and add a new backup key.

Bug 33803: Move our primary nightly MAR signing key to tor-browser

Bug 33803: Add a secondary nightly MAR signing key

TB 42891: Set the bundled search engine for Tor Browser.

After upstream changes between Firefox 115 and 128, we had to
completely rework the way in which we define our search engines.

This commit replaces the old "Omnibox: Add DDG, Startpage, Disconnect,
Youtube, Twitter; remove Amazon, eBay, bing".

With that commit, we customized a list of addons IDs to ship as
built-in search engines, but then upsteam moved to using only
RemoteSettings.
The configuration has many more fields, and it would be quite long to
include it in the source code. Therefore, we use some local JSON files
and load the settings from them.

TB 41906: Hide DNS over HTTPS preferences.

TB 23247: Communicating security expectations for .onion

Encrypting pages hosted on Onion Services with SSL/TLS is redundant
(in terms of hiding content) as all traffic within the Tor network is
already fully encrypted.  Therefore, serving HTTP pages from an Onion
Service is more or less fine.

Prior to this patch, Tor Browser would mostly treat pages delivered
via Onion Services as well as pages delivered in the ordinary fashion
over the internet in the same way.  This created some inconsistencies
in behaviour and misinformation presented to the user relating to the
security of pages delivered via Onion Services:

 - HTTP Onion Service pages did not have any 'lock' icon indicating
   the site was secure
 - HTTP Onion Service pages would be marked as unencrypted in the Page
   Info screen
 - Mixed-mode content restrictions did not apply to HTTP Onion Service
   pages embedding Non-Onion HTTP content

This patch fixes the above issues, and also adds several new 'Onion'
icons to the mix to indicate all of the various permutations of Onion
Services hosted HTTP or HTTPS pages with HTTP or HTTPS content.

Strings for Onion Service Page Info page are pulled from Torbutton's
localization strings.

TB 30237: Add v3 onion services client authentication prompt

When Tor informs the browser that client authentication is needed,
temporarily load about:blank instead of about:neterror and prompt
for the user's key.

If a correctly formatted key is entered, use Tor's ONION_CLIENT_AUTH_ADD
control port command to add the key (via Torbutton's control port
module) and reload the page.

If the user cancels the prompt, display the standard about:neterror
"Unable to connect" page. This requires a small change to
browser/actors/NetErrorChild.jsm to account for the fact that the
docShell no longer has the failedChannel information. The failedChannel
is used to extract TLS-related error info, which is not applicable
in the case of a canceled .onion authentication prompt.

Add a leaveOpen option to PopupNotifications.show so we can display
error messages within the popup notification doorhanger without
closing the prompt.

Add support for onion services strings to the TorStrings module.

Add support for Tor extended SOCKS errors (Tor proposal 304) to the
socket transport and SOCKS layers. Improved display of all of these
errors will be implemented as part of bug 30025.

Also fixes bug 19757:
 Add a "Remember this key" checkbox to the client auth prompt.

 Add an "Onion Services Authentication" section within the
 about:preferences "Privacy & Security section" to allow
 viewing and removal of v3 onion client auth keys that have
 been stored on disk.

Also fixes bug 19251: use enhanced error pages for onion service errors.

fixup! TB 30237: Add v3 onion services client authentication prompt

TB 43610: Update CSS variable names.

TB 21952: Implement Onion-Location

Whenever a valid Onion-Location HTTP header (or corresponding HTML
<meta> http-equiv attribute) is found in a document load, we either
redirect to it (if the user opted-in via preference) or notify the
presence of an onionsite alternative with a badge in the urlbar.

TB 40458: Implement .tor.onion aliases

We have enabled HTTPS-Only mode, therefore we do not need
HTTPS-Everywhere anymore.
However, we want to keep supporting .tor.onion aliases (especially for
securedrop).
Therefore, in this patch we implemented the parsing of HTTPS-Everywhere
rulesets, and the redirect of .tor.onion domains.
Actually, Tor Browser believes they are actual domains. We change them
on the fly on the SOCKS proxy requests to resolve the domain, and on
the code that verifies HTTPS certificates.

fixup! TB 40458: Implement .tor.onion aliases

TB 43610: Update CSS variable names.

TB 11698: Incorporate Tor Browser Manual pages into Tor Browser

This patch associates the about:manual page to a translated page that
must be injected to browser/omni.ja after the build.
The content must be placed in chrome/browser/content/browser/manual/, so
that is then available at chrome://browser/content/manual/.
We preferred giving absolute freedom to the web team, rather than having
to change the patch in case of changes on the documentation.

TB 41435: Add a Tor Browser migration function

For now this function only deletes old language packs for which we are
already packaging the strings with the application.

TB 40701: Add security warning when downloading a file

Shown in the downloads panel, about:downloads and places.xhtml.

TB 41736: Customize toolbar for tor-browser.

TB 41728: Pin bridges.torproject.org domains to Let's Encrypt's root cert public key

TB 41822: Unconditionally disable default browser UX in about:preferences

Temporary commit: manually place generated wasm files

These files are built reproducibly using tor-browser-build: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser-build/-/merge_requests/715

We're manually adding them here while working on the interface, but
eventually these should be placed in the right location using
tor-browser-build.
