At the end of any successful install, both the stub installer and full installer
(in interactive mode) attempt to launch the newly installed copy. But currently,
they first check if any copy of Firefox [1] is already running, and skip doing
that launch if so. The reason for this is that it used to be the case that no
two instances of Firefox could ever be running under default conditions because
there was only one default profile and it would be in use. It's clear that this
is the reason for the check because an exception is made for Developer Edition,
which had its own default profile and so wasn't subject to this restriction.
But now, we have per-install profiles by default, so there's no longer any need
to have this check, because launching the new instance won't be blocked by the
fact that there's already an instance running; all we're doing is creating
false positive prompts for something that isn't an issue anymore. So, this
patch removes the check and the prompt.
[1] At least that's the intent, but because of bug 1600905 we're actually now
checking for any Gecko-based product, because that's the best we can now do.

The previous patch didn't work because the helper running as the unelevated
user is the only one that can read the pref out of its user registry hive,
which is where Firefox has to write it, but then since it's limited it can't
write to either the shortcut log or to HKLM. So everything has to happen in
HKCU so that the unelevated helper can both read and write where it needs to
read and write to.

My initial idea of using the shortcuts log to store this information didn't
work out because the helper, when run by an updater which was run by the
maintenance service, doesn't get write permissions on that file.

The minidump-analyzer tool was originally conceived to be used from the crash
report client and as such was installed in the crash reporter client
application bundle on macOS. It was later adapted to work from Firefox itself
but this caused linking problems when invoked from the Firefox app bundle.
This patch moves the minidump-analyzer into the Firefox app bundle and adapts
the relevant code to find it there.
The minidump-analyzer was also not signed like the rest of our executables and
this patch addresses that issue too.

At least for now, this behavior is behind a hidden pref. The intent is to
experiment with the feature and determine that way whether enabling it
permanently is a good idea, and if so the pref gate will be removed in a
separate bug.
This patch depends on bug 1567247 and will fail to build without it.

We intentionally only clean out the prefs registry key during uninstall, unlike
the other registry keys that the installer creates, because we might want to do
experiments that involve the procedures that normally clean out registry keys.
This leaves open the possibility that an experiment causes some problem that
by its nature makes it difficult to disable the experiment, since it wouldn't
be disabled by either a normal update or a paveover install, but it's
necessary to make sure that experiments persist for longer than e.g. a single
update cycle.
