1504223 - Remove capabilities duplication in session request in Marionette Python client

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Remote Protocol :: Marionette, enhancement, P1)

Description

[Andreas Tolfsen ❲:ato❳]

For backwards compatibility reasons we duplicate the capabilities
object in the request body in the Marionette Python client:
https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/39cb1e96cf97713c444c5a0404d4f84627aee85d/testing/marionette/client/marionette_driver/marionette.py#1284-1296

We have shipped Firefox 60 and this can now be removed.

This is follow-up work from
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1502864.

Attachment: bug 1504223: marionette: stop duplicating capabilities in new session request;

As a backwards compatibility measure following bug 1388424 which
removed the ability to set the session ID, we duplicated the
capabilities dictionary in the request body.

Since this shipped through all the trees as part of Firefox 60,
we can now drop this compatibility measure.
