    Configure either geckoview beta or nightly at compile-time (#4851) · 6c020a0b
    Mitchell Hentges authored
    * Remove "abi" product flavor and introduce "engine" product flavor.
    
    This patch will allow us to build Fenix against GeckoView Nightly and GeckoView Beta by
    introducing a new flavor dimension: engine = [geckoNightly, geckoBeta].
    
    In addition to that it adds a "fenix"  prefix to the nightly, beta and production flavors
    to reduce the ambiguity between fenix beta/nightly and GeckoView beta/nightly.
    
    For now the build types have the following engine variants enabled:
    
    **debug**: geckoNightly, geckoBeta
    Both variants enabled for local development and testing.
    
    **forPerformanceTest**: geckoNightly, geckoBeta
    Both variants enabled unless the perf team only cares about Nightly (tbd)
    
    **fenixNightlyLegacy**: geckoBeta
    Uses GeckoView Beta for now - the same version we ship production builds with (same behavior
    as before). This release type will eventualyl be decommissioned once we switch to a separate
    Nightly app on Google Play.
    
    **fenixNightly**: geckoBeta
    Uses GeckoView Beta for now - the same version we ship production builds with (same behavior
    as before). Changing this build to use GeckoView Nightly is currently being discussed.
    
    **fenixBeta**: geckoBeta
    Fenix Beta uses GeckoView Beta.
    
    **fenixProduction**
    Fenix Production uses GeckoView Beta (69) currently.
    
    * gradle.py/variant.py: Replace "abi" with "engine".
    
    * Disable enableUnitTestBinaryResources until we can switch to Android Gradle plugin 3.5.
    
    * Fenix nightly should use both geckoview nightly and beta
    
    * Updates automation to use apk splitting and support different engine
