Details

Currently the marionette executor has no idea what the pid of the Firefox process is, so to wait for the browser to exit we end up running a long-running script. However this can be problematic as e.g. a reload of the window running the script will cause the script to terminate. That interfers with debugging workflows. Instead we should wire through the pid and wait for that (if it's known; in the case of e.g. android it can't work).
