    Bug 9173: Change the default Firefox profile directory to be relative. · 8d71df71
    Pier Angelo Vendrame authored
    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).
