Browsewrtime uses gecko driver to drive Firefox

Because of this  we use a "temp" profile that is created and deleted by the driver

We can use this strategy to save the profile and collect the crash data:

Notes on JS: https://selenium.dev/selenium/docs/api/javascript/module/selenium-webdriver/firefox.html

Or force browsertime/driver to use the  preexisting profile and not clone info from a template
