Comment (by VasiliyPetrov):

 BTW, I found why this:
 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/13150#comment:2
 not worked

 Because I wrote a port number in quotes, but it must be written without
 it:

 # Tor Launcher Preferences:
 pref("extensions.torlauncher.control_port", 9251);

 Please add this string to extension-overrides.js in repository (but with
 default control port - 9151).

 Anyway, there is a one thing, that I do not know how to override correctly
 before first start:
 user_pref("network.proxy.socks_port", 9150);

 I tried with the same way in the extension-overrides.js:
 pref("network.proxy.socks_port", 9250);
 but it did not helped; probably, because it is a common browser settings,
 but not an extension (I do not sure about this).
