Firefox expects XPIs in distributions/extensions to have the same name as their ID or it throws errors like this:

Failed to install distribution add-on /usr/lib/firefox-nightly/distribution/extensions/langpack-it@firefox-nightly.mozilla.org.xpi: Error: File file /usr/lib/firefox-nightly/distribution/extensions/langpack-it@firefox-nightly.mozilla.org.xpi contains an add-on with an incorrect ID(resource://gre/modules/addons/XPIInstall.sys.mjs:4187:13) JS Stack trace: installDistributionAddon@XPIInstall.sys.mjs:4187:13
awaitPromise@XPIProvider.sys.mjs:237:15

Firefox expects XPI files in distribution/extensions to be named with
their ID or it throws exceptions on startup like
/usr/lib/firefox-nightly/distribution/extensions/langpack-it@firefox-nightly.mozilla.org.xpi contains an add-on with an incorrect ID.

The previous code would use the package name but the langpack XPI ID is
actually using the remoting name (firefox/devedition) and does not
contain the track for which it was built. So we ended up with
langpack-fr@firefox-nightly.mozilla.org.xpi instead of
langpack-fr@firefox.mozilla.org.xpi for nightly builds (same issue
with beta), which prevents the langpack from loading.
