Andreas Tolfsen c0c59383f9 bug 1544393: remote: ship remote agent in Firefox Nightly r=remote-protocol-reviewers,whimboo,maja_zf
Now that the security review in bug 1542229 and the follow-up work
that came out of it is complete, we should go ahead and flip the
remote.enabled preference.

This patch causes the remote agent to be available to users on the
Firefox Nightly release channel.  This meansusing --remote-debugger
will no longer cause a fatal error

The Firefox remote agent is a low-level debugging interface based
on the CDP protocol.
With it, you can inspect the state and control execution of documents
running in web content, instrument Gecko in interesting ways,
simulate user interaction for automation purposes, and debug
JavaScript execution.
This component provides an experimental and partial implementation
of a remote devtools interface using the CDP protocol and transport
layer.
See https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/remote/ for documentation.
It is available in Firefox Nightly and is started this way:
% ./mach run --remote-debugger
