For now, our experiments don't need dynamically generated QR codes, so we're just going to be checking-in static pregenerated QR codes.
So for now, I'm going to let go of this ticket, move it Toolkit/General, and let it live there. If anyone (eg FxA, the only current users of this code) wishes to move and upgrade it, this could be a reasonable place to start (Hi MarkH!).
https://github.com/kazuhikoarase/qrcode-generator/tree/master/js
is the upstream for the encoder; it looks like it would (currently, anyway), be quite straightforward to migrate to this version, and there would be some benefits (eg it could generate SVG code, has some bug fixes, supports some other types of QRs). How much direct impact any of that would have on Firefox (i.e. whether it's really worth doing) is unclear to me.

Note that this ticket as written only covers the encoder, because when I looked, no one was using the decoder.
