Need to port D87693 from bug 1659898.

Since signoffs are no longer part of the process, there's no reason not to set up the cron task to do automatic pinning. Every hour is probably a bit excessive given Thunderbird's push rate. Twice a day seems sufficient.

The bumper running on comm-beta will do the actual pinning. An outstanding question, how is the automatic bumping prevented during RC week?

Firefox runs l10n-bump automatically on m-central as well, the reason for that is not clear.

I'm planning on requesting level 4 commit access, which would allow us to land a .cron.yml change on mozilla-beta disabling the beta l10n-bump cron entry. The central->beta merge will re-enable it.

I think this is purely for adjusting the locale lists or adding new platforms if the config or all-locales lists change.

Okay that works

That's what I suspected. I'll keep this out for now.

Side note..
There's been a desire for an easy way to disable the Thunderbird nightly cron that's less error prone than modifying .cron.yml. I've been picturing a file that the resulting decision task could check for (in target_tasks maybe?). This sounds like another use case.

l10n-bumper-beta was added to get around the need for a Taskcluster cron task.
Since signoffs are no longer part of the process it can be removed.

Port of D87693.
There's no diffence between Thunderbird and Firefox URLs now. It's just what's
on tip.

Depends on D87780

Firefox runs this every hour. Since Thunderbird does not have the same rate
of string updates nor as many pushes this is probably sufficient. The automation
only pushes if there is a change and will push with DONTBUILD.

Depends on D87781

Closing the tree will also work, but may be heavy handed.

Hm. It might be relatively easy to [un]comment lines in the yaml? Not familiar with all the ways the yaml can break, though.
