Adding isTemporary to WebExtension.MetaData should be enough. This is so that the app's addon manager can show these addons differently.

Assignee: nobody → agi

This allows embedders to know when an extension is installed temporarily so
that they can allow it even if they would normally do it (e.g. for extensions
installed with web-ext).
