1894902 - Temporarily disable low-quality pinch zoom

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Graphics: WebRender, task)

Description

[Jamie Nicol [:jnicol]]

It's causing seams to appear between tiles while zooming. A proper fix is being worked on, but we should disable it for non-nightly in the meantime

It is causing flickering seams while zooming (bug 1894106), so we
should disable it whilst working on the proper fix.

Switcing to a release uplift request since Fx126 is in RC week.
This may not make 126.0 RC1, but it can be included later in a ride along if there's an RC2, dot release, etc.
