Commits: 9d9fe343 by Pier Angelo Vendrame at 2025-01-14T12:37:59+00:00 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".
