1797777 - Use `browser_specific_settings` instead of `applications` in extension manifests

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(WebExtensions :: General, task, P3)

Description

[William Durand [:willdurand]]

In Bug 1797050, we added a warning to encourage developers to adopt browser_specific_settings (bss) instead of applications in extension manifest.json files. A lot of tests have been updated to use bss but non-test files have been largely ignored.

This bug is about updating non-test extensions (e.g. search engines, built-in extensions, colorways themes among other things) to use bss instead of applications.

The patch attached here should take care of all the occurrences that haven't been updated in other bugs (which were either filed by different teams or filed in different components to let the teams/owners know about the changes).
