[Mozilla Enterprise] Downgrade Protection and Profile Per Installation in Firefox 68

With Firefox 68 two new features are being added; dedicated profiles per
Firefox installation and downgrade protection. These allow for simpler
on-boarding of beta and nightly users and also prevent users from hitting
profile corruption issues when switching between different
versions/channels of Firefox.

Environment variables will be available in Firefox 68 to disable both
features and we are assessing whether this will be enough for ESR users to
maintain compatibility with their custom deployment configurations.

It would be great if you could let us know of specific issues related to
these features that an environment variable would not allow addressing.

Thanks for your input.
