Preferences set with `pref()` can be changed by the user, but they're
then reset on each Firefox startup.
As users may want a different UA and keep it persistent, we should set
the default value with `defaultPref()` instead. This requires moving the
preference to the autoconfig file though, as `defaultPref()` isn't
recognized in the main config file.
Adds stylesheets for some "about:" pages, the pages were chosen depending
on importance for user.
preferences.css was moved to sidebar.css since changes in this file could
be applied for more pages and were related only to sidebar.

addons.mozilla.org displays the following message when visiting it with
the Android Firefox user agent now, while also graying out the usual
button to install the add-on:
You can install this add-on in the Add-ons Manager. Learn more
about add-ons for Android.
It is not possible to use a different user agent just for this website
anymore, as it used to be with "general.useragent.site_specific_overrides"
(see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1589607). Therefore,
just explain that one can press the "Download file" button to install
add-ons.
When trying to install uBlock origin as suggested on the start page, I
found that the text of the popup is taking up so much space that the
"Add" / "Cancel" buttons are missing again. Decrease the font size even
further (like in the "Site information"), so the buttons are visible
again.
If somebody wants to improve this: maybe we could give the
popup-notification-body a fixed height instead, and make it scrollable?
Patches welcome, and see README.md for instructions how to use the
Firefox developer tools with the browser UI itself.
Remove the rule that makes it go 50px to the left and 20px to the right.
While this added some more space for editing the URL, it looked weird.
After having used it for a while, I think it's better to remove this
again.
The userChrome.css in the user's profile will be overwritten when the
package is upgraded.
Any change should therefore be made to the file located under /etc,
which should then be left untouched by most package managers.
Firefox can run an autoconfig Javascript on startup, which can be used to
install and update userChrome.css, both when creating a new profile and
using a pre-existing one.
This removes the need for a wrapper script and related complications
(changes to $PATH, different processing for new and pre-existing
profiles...)

The reason for disabling these was, to free up space in the menu. The
menu entry is hidden in userChrome.css now, so we can enable it again.
Having this enabled is required to use the Firefox remote debugger,
which is very useful for developing userChrome.css.
Always start with --profile if there is no profiles.ini. Otherwise,
firefox will create and use the profile for the first start only, but
not set it as default. It would create a new profile on the second start
then.
Instead of trying to override the .desktop entry of Firefox by
installing the custom one and adjusting XDG_DATA_DIRS, just wrap the
firefox binary directly and adjust PATH. The former did not work with
Phosh, and on second thought, wrapping the binary is what's really
necessary. The launcher would have been just another useless layer.
