bug 1309125 is adding "backgroundInterval" as an attribute that can be set on the <update> line that will override how quickly or slowly Firefox downloads a MAR. We need to add support for this in the AppRelease blobs.

Robert, do we need to worry about _not_ setting this for versions of Firefox that don't support it, or will they silently ignore it?

Whoops, meant to needinfo

No need to worry about it at all. If it is present for a client that doesn't support it it will just be ignored. If it isn't present for a client that does support it it will use the preference value and if that is not present it will use the default value.
