1682022 - Use sentence casing for most of the App Menu

Status: ASSIGNED

(Firefox :: Menus, task, P1)

Description

[Mike Conley (:mconley) (:⚙️) (Catching up on needinfos)]

This bug doesn't cover the Accounts, Library, Web Developer or Help submenus. Those will be covered in separate bugs, as those strings are likely re-used for things like the menubar.

Gnome says "header capitalization" (similar to title casing): https://developer.gnome.org/hig/stable/writing-style.html.en and headerbars (hamburger/app menus) are commonly used there.

macOS doesn't commonly use these menus, but menu bars are generally supposed to use title casing: https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/macos/menus/menu-anatomy/

This doesn't include the Accounts, Library, Web Developer or Help submenus.
Those will be addressed in follow-ups.

We're going to need to fork &tabCmd.label; for the AppMenu, too.
