Details

Due to certain bugs like Bug 1782854, favicons.sqlite may have grown well over the expected size.
According to telemetry on Nightly 0.5% (beta 0.2%) of users have a db larger than 100MB, so this may not be extremely widespread, but it would still be nice to address somehow.
We could for example check if a page has more than N favicons and if so expire any that are older than N days. Note normally we only expire icons if a page is removed from history.
