Attached image sync now in the sidebar

STR:

  1. Open sidebar in the Firefox profile that is syncing one or more additional devices.
  2. Right-click a synced device in the Sidebar
  3. Choose "Sync now" option.

Expected vs actual result
Users expect that their remote synced device will be synced as a result, while what is really happening is that their current device is being synced to the remote device.

The presence of the "Sync now" button might be contributing to confusion, and I think the path forward is to remove the per-device "Sync now" from the right-click menu.

Seems like we should still have this option available in the sidebar somewhere, just not in that contextual menu.
