First of all, I really tried to make the diff smaller, but no matter what I do, since I am adding a new module, webpack is shifting almost everything in the file... You can have a look at the github changelog to get a better idea of the actual code change here:

Approval Request Comment
[Feature/Bug causing the regression]: Workaround for issue described in Bug 1443550
[User impact if declined]: Users can not use the debugger to remote debug Fennec 59 or Fennec 60.
[Is this code covered by automated tests?]: no (remote debugging is not covered)
[Has the fix been verified in Nightly?]: I manually tested it
[Needs manual test from QE? If yes, steps to reproduce]: 
- setup remote debugging on android (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Remote_Debugging/Debugging_Firefox_for_Android_with_WebIDE)
- open WebIDE
- connect to the mobile device
- switch to debugger -> debugger UI should appear
[List of other uplifts needed for the feature/fix]: Bug 1448499, already uplifted
[Is the change risky?]: No
[Why is the change risky/not risky?]: debugger/devtools only, we are just fetching the version of the debug target before sending another request (which crashes on some versions, crashes that we now can avoid)
[String changes made/needed]: none

Cancelling requests for now, it seems this change breaks service worker debugging.
