1703886 - Let `MOZ_BACKGROUNDTASKS` ride to Beta and make `MOZ_UPDATE_AGENT` depend on `MOZ_BACKGROUNDTASKS`

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Application Update, task)

Description

[Nick Alexander :nalexander [he/him]]

Right now, MOZ_BACKGROUNDTASKS is limited to Nightly: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/21110f35dbb95d3c41c8c5bd363ec689900af30f/toolkit/moz.configure#2534.

And for hysterical raisins, we used MOZ_UPDATE_AGENT to gate the TaskScheduler.jsm work: Bug 1676296. Subsequently, we've actually implemented MOZ_UPDATE_AGENT, but we haven't made it depend on MOZ_BACKGROUNDTASKS.

This ticket tracks:

1. letting MOZ_BACKGROUNDTASKS ride the trains
2. letting TaskScheduler.jsm ride the trains
3. making MOZ_UPDATE_AGENT depend on MOZ_BACKGROUNDTASKS

There's no need to lint the tools/update-programs project, since
it's not a supported configuration. The next consumer can
rehabilitate it or remove it.
