1904308 - Implement fetching in-app notifications from server

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: General, task)

Description

[Martin Giger [:freaktechnik]]

Notifications should be periodically refreshed from a server. The server endpoint is provided by a pref. If the pref is empty, notifications aren't refreshed. If the user hasn't seen our privacy policy etc., we shouldn't contact the server.

We can be fairly conservative about the refresh interval, maybe even leveraging caching headers to make the interval configurable by the server.

With this we likely also want to make initializing the NotificationManager more complicated, so we only use the cached notifications if we're not refreshing from the network on initialization.
