Bug 1524688 introduced a new way to register the XPCOM implemented in JS statically. This reduces the overhead of it.
Ideally we should convert to this method but unfortunately, it breaks artifact builds support. This static definition requires a full build of Firefox.
So I'll make that work depend on bug 1533831 which will enable the remote agent by default and make it so that the static registration of remote agent jsm is part of artifact builds.

Convert Remote agent to this new registration.

I submitted the patch for review here, but this is only meant to be landed after bug 1533831 is landed.
This should help justify why I'm converting RemoteAgent to be a JSM in bug 1536888.

I wish these sort of changes were announced more publicly. It’s
quite hard to keep track of.

I always use a full build locally, so I’m not too worried about it.

Yes, thanks! That puzzled me to begin with.

I do use artifact and having to do full builds ruins my productivity here,
so I'll wait before landing this one.

Is it there a tracking bug for making it work with artifact builds?
If so, we should mark it to block this one.
