Commits: 3f90b231 by Pier Angelo Vendrame at 2024-09-02T10:23:18+02:00 fixup! Bug 4234: Use the Firefox Update Process for Base Browser.

Bug 42747: Discard unsupported updates earlier.

Firefox's updater has a function to select updates, which checks mainly the version number. Therefore, a more recent update that is unsupported will be chosen over a compatible one. We patch this to be able to provide an alternative update path to Windows 7.
