STR:
1. Open this URL - about:performance
2. Look on "Performance of Add-ons" and "Performance of Web pages" section
3. Wait some time, but spinner spins forever and doesn't show anything like on PC version.

Tested with Mozilla Firefox Mobile 53.0.2 on Android 6.0.1

Two difficulties here:
- Monitoring Add-ons has been removed as part of Bug 1309946.
- The low-level code for monitoring is entirely deactivated on ARM, as I haven't found a way to make sure that it wouldn't hurt performance. Note that I haven't tried very hard, so it's possible that there is a way to do it.

I'm marking this bug as WONTFIX, as Mozilla dropped support for Fennec.
