Bug 1774413: Bundled fonts are not picked up on macOS r=jfkthame
Bundled fonts were not picked up because also child processes need to
register them.
Also, they were assigned User visibility, instead of Base, which was
not coherent with other platforms.

Bug 1769030: Add a configure flag to load policies only from the local policies.json file r=mkaply,glandium
Add a configuration flag to make Enterprise Policies mechanism only
consult a policies.json file (avoiding the Windows Registry, macOS's
file system attributes, and /etc/firefox/policies/policies.json on
other OS).

Bug 1768907 - Part 2: nsTransferable disk-leaks when private browsing mode is enabled by default. r=handyman
nsTransferable was modified to prevent disk leakings when copying data
in private browsing mode with Bug 1123480.
However, the context is nullptr when it is initialized, so it still
leaks if PBM is enabled by default.
Our solution is to check the browser.privatebrowsing.autostart in this
condition.

Bug 1670885 - Fix post-fork() handlers for PHC/LogAlloc to work on macOS using unfair locks r=glandium
macOS unfair locks enforce that a lock can only be released by the thread which locked it.
On macOS 11+ this caused the fork()'d child process to raise a SIGILL signal. Confusingly enough this behavior seems to be different on macOS 10.15 and possibly interacted in odd ways with our exception handler if it was installed before fork()-ing.

Bug 1784018 - Remove deprecated OSSpinLocks r=glandium
On macOS versions prior to 10.15 os_unfair_locks cannot spin in kernel-space
which degrades performance significantly. To obviate for this we spin in
user-space like OSSpinLock does, for the same number of times and invoking
x86-specific pause instructions in-between the locking attempts to avoid
starving a thread that might be running on the same physical core.

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.

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.

a visible "this address does not look right" error page.
If we fix the issues with MOZ_SERVICES_SYNC, we can restore the
component.

Bug 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.

Bug 17252: Enable session identifiers with FPI
Session tickets and session identifiers were isolated
by OriginAttributes, so we can re-enable them by
allowing the default value (true) of
"security.ssl.disable_session_identifiers".
The pref "security.enable_tls_session_tickets" is obsolete
(removed in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/917049)
Bug 14952: Enable http/2 and AltSvc
In Firefox, SPDY/HTTP2 now uses Origin Attributes for
isolation of connections, push streams, origin frames, etc.
That means we get first-party isolation provided
"privacy.firstparty.isolate" is true. So in this patch, we
stop overriding "network.http.spdy.enabled" and
"network.http.spdy.enabled.http2".
Alternate Services also use Origin Attributes for isolation.
So we stop overriding
"network.http.altsvc.enabled" and "network.http.altsvc.oe"
as well.
(All 4 of the abovementioned "network.http.*" prefs adopt
Firefox 60ESR's default value of true.)
However, we want to disable HTTP/2 push for now, so we
set "network.http.spdy.allow-push" to false.
"network.http.spdy.enabled.http2draft" was removed in Bug 1132357.
"network.http.sped.enabled.v2" was removed in Bug 912550.

Bug 26146: Spoof HTTP User-Agent header for desktop platforms
In Tor Browser 8.0, the OS was revealed in both the HTTP User-Agent
header and to JavaScript code via navigator.userAgent. To avoid
leaking the OS inside each HTTP request (which many web servers
log), always use the Windows 7 OS value in the desktop User-Agent
header. We continue to allow access to the actual OS via JavaScript,
since doing so improves compatibility with web applications such
as GitHub and Google Docs.
Bug 12885: Windows Jump Lists fail for Tor Browser
Jumplist entries are stored in a binary file in:
%APPDATA%\\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\CustomDestinations\
and has a name in the form
[a-f0-9]+.customDestinations-ms
The hex at the front is unique per app, and is ultimately derived from
something called the 'App User Model ID' (AUMID) via some unknown
hashing method. The AUMID is provided as a key when programmatically
creating, updating, and deleting a jumplist. The default behaviour in
firefox is for the installer to define an AUMID for an app, and save it
in the registry so that the jumplist data can be removed by the
uninstaller.
However, the Tor Browser does not set this (or any other) regkey during
installation, so this codepath fails and the app's AUMID is left
undefined. As a result the app's AUMID ends up being defined by
windows, but unknowable by Tor Browser. This unknown AUMID is used to
create and modify the jumplist, but the delete API requires that we
provide the app's AUMID explicitly. Since we don't know what the AUMID
is (since the expected regkey where it is normally stored does not
exist) jumplist deletion will fail and we will leave behind a mostly
empty customDestinations-ms file. The name of the file is derived from
the binary path, so an enterprising person could reverse engineer how
that hex name is calculated, and generate the name for Tor Browser's
default Desktop installation path to determine whether a person had
used Tor Browser in the past.
The 'taskbar.grouping.useprofile' option that is enabled by this patch
works around this AUMID problem by having firefox.exe create it's own
AUMID based on the profile path (rather than looking for a regkey). This
way, if a user goes in and enables and disables jumplist entries, the
backing store is properly deleted.
Unfortunately, all windows users currently have this file lurking in
the above mentioned directory and this patch will not remove it since it
was created with an unknown AUMID. However, another patch could be
written which goes to that directory and deletes any item containing the
'Tor Browser' string. See bug 28996.

Bug 22548: Firefox downgrades VP9 videos to VP8.
On systems where H.264 is not available or no HWA, VP9 is preferred. But in Tor
Browser 7.0 all youtube videos are degraded to VP8.
This behaviour can be turned off by setting media.benchmark.vp9.threshold to 0.
All clients will get better experience and lower traffic, beause TBB doesn't
use "Use hardware acceleration when available".

Bug 12885: Windows Jump Lists fail for Tor Browser
Jumplist entries are stored in a binary file in:
%APPDATA%\\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\CustomDestinations\
and has a name in the form
[a-f0-9]+.customDestinations-ms
The hex at the front is unique per app, and is ultimately derived from
something called the 'App User Model ID' (AUMID) via some unknown
hashing method. The AUMID is provided as a key when programmatically
creating, updating, and deleting a jumplist. The default behaviour in
firefox is for the installer to define an AUMID for an app, and save it
in the registry so that the jumplist data can be removed by the
uninstaller.
However, the Tor Browser does not set this (or any other) regkey during
installation, so this codepath fails and the app's AUMID is left
undefined. As a result the app's AUMID ends up being defined by
windows, but unknowable by Tor Browser. This unknown AUMID is used to
create and modify the jumplist, but the delete API requires that we
provide the app's AUMID explicitly. Since we don't know what the AUMID
is (since the expected regkey where it is normally stored does not
exist) jumplist deletion will fail and we will leave behind a mostly
empty customDestinations-ms file. The name of the file is derived from
the binary path, so an enterprising person could reverse engineer how
that hex name is calculated, and generate the name for Tor Browser's
default Desktop installation path to determine whether a person had
used Tor Browser in the past.
The 'taskbar.grouping.useprofile' option that is enabled by this patch
works around this AUMID problem by having firefox.exe create it's own
AUMID based on the profile path (rather than looking for a regkey). This
way, if a user goes in and enables and disables jumplist entries, the
backing store is properly deleted.
Unfortunately, all windows users currently have this file lurking in
the above mentioned directory and this patch will not remove it since it
was created with an unknown AUMID. However, another patch could be
written which goes to that directory and deletes any item containing the
'Tor Browser' string. See bug 28996.

Browser 7.0 all youtube videos are degraded to VP8.
This behaviour can be turned off by setting media.benchmark.vp9.threshold to 0.

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 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).

It looks like these cases should only be invoked in the NSS command line

Bug 23104: Add a default line height compensation
Many fonts have issues with their vertical metrics. they
are used to influence the height of ascenders and depth
of descenders. Gecko uses it to calculate the line height
(font height + ascender + descender), however because of
that idiosyncratic behavior across multiple operating
systems, it can be used to identify the user's OS.
The solution proposed in the patch uses a default factor
to be multiplied with the font size, simulating the concept
of ascender and descender. This way all operating
systems will have the same line height only and only if the
frame is outside the chrome.

MOZ_SOURCE_URL is created by combining MOZ_SOURCE_REPO and

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/.

Firefox computes an internal network ID used to detect network changes

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.

prevent any accidental leak in the future.

Bug 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

about:tor needs these files but it is included earlier.

Bug 26961: New user onboarding.
Reuse the Firefox onboarding mechanism with minimal changes.
Localizable strings are pulled in from Torbutton (if Torbutton is
not installed, we lack about:tor and no tour will be shown).
Replace SVG images with PNGs (see bug 27002),
For defense in depth, omit include OnboardingTelemetry.jsm entirely.
Added support for the following UITour page event:
torBrowserOpenSecuritySettings
Also fix bug 27403: the onboarding bubble is not always displayed.
Arthur suggested to make the onboarding bubble visible on displays with
less than 960px width available, so we choose 200px instead.
Also fix bug 28628: Change onboarding Security panel to open new
Security Level panel.
Also fix bug 27484: Improve navigation within onboarding.
Bug 27082: enable a limited UITour
Disallow access to UITour functionality from all pages other than
about:home, about:newtab, and about:tor.
Implement a whitelist mechanism for page actions.
Bug 26962 - implement new features onboarding (part 1).
Add an "Explore" button to the "Circuit Display" panel within new user
onboarding which opens the DuckDuckGo .onion and then guides users through
a short circuit display tutorial.
Allow a few additional UITour actions while limiting as much as possible
how it can be used.
Tweak the UITour styles to match the Tor Browser branding.
All user interface strings are retrieved from Torbutton's
browserOnboarding.properties file.
Bug 27486 Avoid about:blank tabs when opening onboarding pages.
Instead of using a simple <a href>, programmatically open onboarding
web pages by using tabBrowser.addTab(). The same technique is now
used for "See My Path", "See FAQs", and "Visit an Onion".
Bug 29768: Introduce new features to users
Add an "update" tour for the Tor Browser 8.5 release that contains two
panels: Toolbar and Security (with appropriate description text and
images).
Display an attention-grabbing dot on the onboarding text bubble when
the update tour is active. The animation lasts for 14 seconds.
Bug 31768: Introduce toolbar and network settings changes in onboarding
Update the "Tor Network" onboarding page to include a note that
settings can now be accessed via the application preferences and
add an "Adjust Your Tor Network Settings" action button which opens
about:preferences#tor.
Replace the Tor Browser 8.5 "update" onboarding tour with a 9.0 one
that includes the revised "Tor Network" page and a revised "Toolbar"
page. The latter explains that Torbutton's toolbar item has been
removed ("Goodbye Onion Button") and explains how to access the
New Identity feature using the hamburger menu and new toolbar item.

Before reordering patches, we used to keep the Tor-related patches
(torbutton and tor-launcher) at the beginning.

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

Bug 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
- about:preferences#tor, and about:torconnect now read and write settings
thorugh the TorSettings module
- all tor settings live in the torbrowser.settings.* preference branch

Bug 10760: Integrate TorButton to TorBrowser core
Because of the non-restartless nature of Torbutton, it required
a two-stage installation process. On mobile, it was a problem,
because it was not loading when the user opened the browser for
the first time.
Moving it to tor-browser and making it a system extension allows it
to load when the user opens the browser for first time.

Bug 19273: Avoid JavaScript patching of the external app helper dialog.
When handling an external URI or downloading a file, invoke Torbutton's
external app blocker component (which will present a download warning
dialog unless the user has checked the "Automatically download files
from now on" box).
For e10s compatibility, avoid using a modal dialog and instead use
a callback interface (nsIHelperAppWarningLauncher) to allow Torbutton
to indicate the user's desire to cancel or continue each request.
Other bugs fixed:
Bug 21766: Crash with e10s enabled while trying to download a file
Bug 21886: Download is stalled in non-e10s mode

Bug 4234: Use the Firefox Update Process for Tor Browser.
The following files are never updated:
TorBrowser/Data/Browser/profiles.ini
TorBrowser/Data/Browser/profile.default/bookmarks.html
TorBrowser/Data/Tor/torrc
Mac OS: Store update metadata under TorBrowser/UpdateInfo.
Removed the %OS_VERSION% component from the update URL (13047) and
added support for minSupportedOSVersion, an attribute of the
<update> element that may be used to trigger Firefox's
"unsupported platform" behavior.
Hide the "What's new" links (set app.releaseNotesURL value to about:blank).
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 26049: reduce the delay before the update prompt is displayed.
Instead of Firefox's 2 days, we use 1 hour (after which time the update
doorhanger will be displayed).
Also fix bug 27221: purge the startup cache if the Tor Browser
version changed (even if the Firefox version and build ID did
not change), e.g., after a minor Tor 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 Tor 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.

Omnibox: Add DDG, Startpage, Disconnect, Youtube, Twitter; remove Amazon, eBay, bing
eBay and Amazon don't treat Tor users very well. Accounts often get locked and
payments reversed.
Also:
Bug 16322: Update DuckDuckGo search engine
We are replacing the clearnet URL with an onion service one (thanks to a
patch by a cypherpunk) and are removing the duplicated DDG search
engine. Duplicating DDG happend due to bug 1061736 where Mozilla
included DDG itself into Firefox. Interestingly, this caused breaking
the DDG search if JavaScript is disabled as the Mozilla engine, which
gets loaded earlier, does not use the html version of the search page.
Moreover, the Mozilla engine tracked where the users were searching from
by adding a respective parameter to the search query. We got rid of that
feature as well.
Also:
This fixes bug 20809: the DuckDuckGo team has changed its server-side
code in a way that lets users with JavaScript enabled use the default
landing page while those without JavaScript available get redirected
directly to the non-JS page. We adapt the search engine URLs
accordingly.
Also fixes bug 29798 by making sure we only specify the Google search
engine we actually ship an .xml file for.
Also regression tests.

Bug 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.

Bug 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.

Bug 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.

Bug 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.

Bug 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.

(Fernando Fernandez Mancera <ffmancera at riseup.net>)
Bug 17252: Enable session identifiers with FPI
Session tickets and session identifiers were isolated
by OriginAttributes, so we can re-enable them by
allowing the default value (true) of
"security.ssl.disable_session_identifiers".
The pref "security.enable_tls_session_tickets" is obsolete
(removed in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/917049)
Bug 14952: Enable http/2 and AltSvc
In Firefox, SPDY/HTTP2 now uses Origin Attributes for
isolation of connections, push streams, origin frames, etc.
That means we get first-party isolation provided
"privacy.firstparty.isolate" is true. So in this patch, we
stop overriding "network.http.spdy.enabled" and
"network.http.spdy.enabled.http2".
Alternate Services also use Origin Attributes for isolation.
So we stop overriding
"network.http.altsvc.enabled" and "network.http.altsvc.oe"
as well.
(All 4 of the abovementioned "network.http.*" prefs adopt
Firefox 60ESR's default value of true.)
However, we want to disable HTTP/2 push for now, so we
set "network.http.spdy.allow-push" to false.
"network.http.spdy.enabled.http2draft" was removed in Bug 1132357.
"network.http.sped.enabled.v2" was removed in Bug 912550.
"network.http.sped.enabled.v3" was removed in Bug 1097944.
"network.http.sped.enabled.v3-1" was removed in Bug 1248197.

Bug 26146: Spoof HTTP User-Agent header for desktop platforms
In Tor Browser 8.0, the OS was revealed in both the HTTP User-Agent
header and to JavaScript code via navigator.userAgent. To avoid
leaking the OS inside each HTTP request (which many web servers
log), always use the Windows 7 OS value in the desktop User-Agent
header. We continue to allow access to the actual OS via JavaScript,
since doing so improves compatibility with web applications such
as GitHub and Google Docs.
Bug 12885: Windows Jump Lists fail for Tor Browser
Jumplist entries are stored in a binary file in:
%APPDATA%\\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\CustomDestinations\
and has a name in the form
[a-f0-9]+.customDestinations-ms
The hex at the front is unique per app, and is ultimately derived from
something called the 'App User Model ID' (AUMID) via some unknown
hashing method. The AUMID is provided as a key when programmatically
creating, updating, and deleting a jumplist. The default behaviour in
firefox is for the installer to define an AUMID for an app, and save it
in the registry so that the jumplist data can be removed by the
uninstaller.
However, the Tor Browser does not set this (or any other) regkey during
installation, so this codepath fails and the app's AUMID is left
undefined. As a result the app's AUMID ends up being defined by
windows, but unknowable by Tor Browser. This unknown AUMID is used to
create and modify the jumplist, but the delete API requires that we
provide the app's AUMID explicitly. Since we don't know what the AUMID
is (since the expected regkey where it is normally stored does not
exist) jumplist deletion will fail and we will leave behind a mostly
empty customDestinations-ms file. The name of the file is derived from
the binary path, so an enterprising person could reverse engineer how
that hex name is calculated, and generate the name for Tor Browser's
default Desktop installation path to determine whether a person had
used Tor Browser in the past.
The 'taskbar.grouping.useprofile' option that is enabled by this patch
works around this AUMID problem by having firefox.exe create it's own
AUMID based on the profile path (rather than looking for a regkey). This
way, if a user goes in and enables and disables jumplist entries, the
backing store is properly deleted.
Unfortunately, all windows users currently have this file lurking in
the above mentioned directory and this patch will not remove it since it
was created with an unknown AUMID. However, another patch could be
written which goes to that directory and deletes any item containing the
'Tor Browser' string. See bug 28996.

Bug 22548: Firefox downgrades VP9 videos to VP8.
On systems where H.264 is not available or no HWA, VP9 is preferred. But in Tor
Browser 7.0 all youtube videos are degraded to VP8.
This behaviour can be turned off by setting media.benchmark.vp9.threshold to 0.
All clients will get better experience and lower traffic, beause TBB doesn't
use "Use hardware acceleration when available".

Bug 13379: Allow using NSS to sign and verify MAR signatures
Allow using NSS on all platforms for checking MAR signatures (instead
of using OS-native APIs, the default on Mac OS and Windows).
So that the NSS and NSPR libraries the updater depends on can be
found at runtime, we add the firefox directory to the shared library
search path on macOS.
On Linux, rpath is used to solve that problem, but that approach
won't work on macOS because the updater executable is copied during
the update process to a location that can vary.
