This should move the relevant items from the recovery folder into the right places in the newly created user profile directory.

Copying Mike's comment from here:

During recovery, if we find a places.sqlite and favicons.sqlite in the recovery folder, we know that we can skip reading in the bookmarks backup file. Otherwise, we'll attempt to import the bookmarks backup file into a newly created places.sqlite after the recovered profile is launched.

We can backup bookmarks using BookmarkJSONUtils.exportToFile. In the recovery state, we probably want to call BookmarkJSONUtils.importFromFile and pass in the bookmarks JSON file that we create in the backup.
