1357814 - TPS failure for test_sync on ubuntu: places item not found; Item not found at the expected index, got 4, expected 10 for folder (location: menu, folder: foldera)

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Sync, defect, P1)

I haven't dug into it, but it definitely happens on AWS, and not on my local mac. I suspect (read: hope) it is all Linux (or Ubuntu) where the failure occurs, and not just on AWS. 

Either way, this prevents TPS from passing on AWS. :(

I'll give this a twirl on my home Linux box, and see if I can trigger the problem.

1. Ensure we wait for browser-delayed-startup-finished
2. Parse the profile we're cleaning up from the cleanup phase name instead of
   using the selectedProfile.
3. Ensure that bookmark repair doesn't run randomly (this isn't necessary, but
   the repair code can make the actual reason for failure much more difficult to
   debug, and could probably cause a test to pass when it should not).
4. Add multiprocessCompatible flags so that TPS can still start in nightly (and
   because it is).
