For Firefox 57 we streamlined the addon update check at start up in bug 1353194. We did this because we felt that there would be a lot of extensions that might not update to the last minute, or they would set there extensions to only update when 57 had gone out. We don't want to keep this around forever as compatability checks are pretty much useless and restartless add-ons are no more. The suggestion was to keep this until after the next ESR. Users who move up to the next ESR (currently 60) will get the benefit of this dialog. So let's aim to remove this in Firefox 61.

Please note that this patch removed the extensions.showMismatchUI from testing/geckodriver/src/prefs.rs without approval from a module peer. geckodriver is used out-of-tree against all release channels, and removing before the minimum supported Firefox release is 61 will cause backwards compatibility problems. I’m going to revert the change to this file specifically as part of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1441204.
