2062483 - Stocks widget: let users add default tickers to their Watchlist

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: New Tab Page, enhancement, P1)

Description

[Nina Pypchenko [:nina-py]]

Building on bug 2062482 (the Markets/Watchlist dropdown), let users build their Watchlist from the four default tickers shown in the Markets list.

• Users can pick one or more of the default tickers and add them to their Watchlist.
• The Watchlist view - blank in bug 2062482 - then shows the picked tickers.
• The Watchlist persists across sessions.
• Adding and removing tickers should be recorded as widget telemetry.

Implement this design from Figma: https://www.figma.com/design/i8wWurQ8yn9y5hCjnf8BYu/HNT---Nova?node-id=1855-228362&m=dev

Attachment: Bug 2062483 - Add watchlist add/remove to the Stocks widget

At the Large size, the Stocks widget now lets people build a Watchlist. Adding a
ticker from the Markets list saves it and briefly shows a confirmation checkmark;
the Watchlist tab then lists the saved tickers, each with its own remove control.
When the user already has a watchlist, the widget opens on that tab. Every add and
remove is announced to screen readers and recorded in telemetry, and the list is
stored in a new comma-separated pref.

This also removes a pre-existing duplicate widgets.stocks.size pref entry.
