1850323 - Implement API to allow setting an experimentation ID in all pings in Glean.js

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Data Platform and Tools :: Glean: SDK, task, P1)

Description

[Travis Long [:travis_]]

Similar to Bug 1848201, we should extend this API implementation to Glean.js to allow setting an experimentation ID in "all-pings" sent by Glean. This id has been determined to be StringMetricType shaped and we can wait and let the implementation in glean-core settle to help dictate the design here.

Quick update on this: I have been blocked on this at first by a work-week and then by a Glean.js refactoring that came out of the workweek. This refactor will make it easier to add this API when it is complete and would have complicated it trying to implement this API while it was ongoing. Current status of the refactoring is "reviewed and ready to land". As soon as it is landed I have time set aside to take this up again to get it completed. With holidays coming up, I'll suggest a completion date for this bug of end of November.
