1738937 - Switch FeatureManifest to yaml format and auto-generate the JS file

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Nimbus Desktop Client, enhancement, P1)

Description

[Andrei Oprea [:andreio]]

We want to switch the FeatureManifest file to yaml and generate the JS file. This will be just step 1, the goal is to also have a cpp file generated which would give the platform API access to the manifest data specifically to fallback prefs.
