1004833 - resurect cfx --e10s and add a package.json flag

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Add-on SDK Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Tomislav Jovanovic :zombie]

we still have the argument, but it does nothing.

it should set browser.tabs.remote.autostart to true as that turns e10s for all windows.

similarly, add an internal "e10s" flag to package.json to enable running only specific test addons in e10s mode for the transitional period.

except, cfx is on life support, so I hope it isn't a lot of work. This should be targeted at the jpm / aom project as well.

this is nothing big (except for unrelated hair pulling in bug 1006043), and is absolutely necessary.

not really related to native/AOM stuff, and to JPM only if/when we start running tests with it, and only if that happens before e10s is "done".. ;)
