Details

We no longer support unpacked extensions other than from about:debugging, but this old pref is still around and is just a huge footgun at this point (see bug 1434057 for instance). We do use it in autmation as well and while we can probably stop running a bunch of tests with unpacked extensions, I'm not comfortable doing that without making sure we still have coverage for the about:debugging scenario. In the mean time though, we can stop using alwaysUnpack outside of automated tests.
