This bug is to verify if hidden extensions are properly hidden in about:debugging. :bdanford reported inconsistent behaviors between about:addons and about:debugging. about:debugging checks both `addon.isSystem` and `addon.hidden`. If any of those is true, the addon is only shown in about:debugging if `devtools.aboutdebugging.showHiddenAddons` is true. (also non-debuggable addons are all hidden in about:debugging) Testing locally the behavior of about:debugging seems fine on Nightly. I have addons with only hidden=true, addons with only isSystem=true, addons with both set to true. Any of those addons are hidden unless I flip the preference `devtools.aboutdebugging.showHiddenAddons` to true.
