 Currently Fennec listens for the installation referrer
 `com.android.vending.INSTALL_REFERRER`. This is used for tracking
 installations (source of install, when it was installed, etc). We probably
 do not want this.

 See
 `mobile/android/base/java/org/mozilla/gecko/distribution/ReferrerReceiver.java`
 and (proxied) network calls in
 `mobile/android/base/java/org/mozilla/gecko/distribution/Distribution.java`
