1875837 - Stop requiring test_driver.set_permission(clipboard-read/write) support in WPT

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: DOM: Copy & Paste and Drag & Drop, task)

Description

[Kagami Rosylight [:saschanaz] (they/them)]

Currently we are implicitly accepting clipboard-read/write on test_driver.set_permission even though we don't really implement them: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/c130c69b7b863d5e28ab9524b65c27c7a9507c48/remote/marionette/permissions.sys.mjs#58

But we should not do that, we should modify WPT to use the user activation which is something actually supported by Firefox (and Safari).

(Context: Bug 1875257 is implementing real support of set_permission and thus I was removing the test prefs, but for now I need to keep the clipboard testing pref)

Blink is the only engine supporting it, and thus it should not be the WPT requirement.

Some tests still need the testing pref, and for now this patch gives the pref for such failing tests without modifying them, for simplicity sake. Modification can happen separately.
