I believe that this is the reason some automated tests are failing, preventing us to merge some PRs (see #2911).

That test fails:
https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/blob/79100c7730b84a0564453de0c435b62643856c21/ClientTests/TestFavicons.swift#L52

Because it is calling getDefaultIconForURL, which does a lookup in multiRegionDomains:
https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/blob/98a9f16eab863896fc39ddd113d0671bd1b4524b/Client/Utils/FaviconFetcher.swift#L50

multiRegionDomains is populated by getDefaultIcons(), which is never called in that test case.
I guess the test passed before, because we ran tests by executing the app, so it was probably called at some point before the tests executed.
getDefaultIcons() is only called by defaultIcons (lazy var), which is referenced in getDefaultIconForURL().
That means the first lookup of a favicon, if it is for a "multi region domain", will always fail, not only in tests but also in the app.
