1904821 - Profiler UI should have an option to do a shutdown profile (pick a file etc.)

Status: NEW

(Core :: Gecko Profiler, defect, P3)

Description

[:Gijs (he/him)]

I can use Services.env.set("MOZ_PROFILER_SHUTDOWN", "/path/to/file.json") from the browser console but that's not very discoverable/intuitive. :-)

And, in fact, now that I mention this, it would also be neat to have a button that offers the ability to restart the browser and then profile that startup. We can set env vars that get applied to the next startup after Services.startup.quit(restartflag).
