Attachment: don't use l10n-changesets

This patch, along with the one from 502876 should allow us to do a non-localized 3.6a1.

The workflow for starting the release will be as follows:
* Land this patch and the one from 502876 (if it hasn't landed)
* Land a release-firefox-mozilla-central patch to include the correct changeset
* reconfig master
* Manually kick off tag
* Manually kick off source, *_build after tag finishes.

I filed bug 506673 about getting the automation to support an l10n-less release without this patch.

This patch refreshed to :

- fix error in setting for l10nRevisionFile 
- bring staging-master copy of release-firefox-mozilla-central.py in sync.

Looks good to me.

Attachment: mozconfig changes

The main purpose of this is to change the update channel to beta, and to use the unofficial branding (depends on bug 507950 to switch the strings from Shiretoko to Namoroka). Along the way it has to remove some symlinks so that we can have separate release mozconfigs for m-c and m-1.9.1. 

The changes here are:
* mozilla2/linux/mozilla-1.9.1 symlink to mozilla-central is removed, replaced with a dir that symlinks the subdirs instead, except for release/
* mozilla2/mac/mozilla-1.9.1/release symlink is removed and replaced with a dir containing mozconfig file
* 1.9.1 configs aren't changing at all, hg copy was used to preserve history
* the mozilla-central mozconfigs get on the beta update channel and point to the unofficial branding for 3.6a1
* the same for staging, except that it never got updated from beta to release originally, so this syncs everything back up

I've done a fair bit of checking here, eg copying a clean and dirty repo using rsync -aL, then diffing the result.


Note that Bug 504953 changed the branding stuff, if you run into bustage there.

Looks good to me - in the future, you don't need to update the staging one (but you can if you want).

version bumps

Beltzner wants us to bump straight to 3.6b1pre/1.9.2b1pre. You also need to update the Nagios monitoring files in mozilla/tools/tinderbox-configs/monitoring - you'll need to get all of the mozilla-central, places, tracemonkey, and electrolysis ones.

mr. b seems fine with this option, so I'm reversing my decision.

nagios monitoring bumps

Places, TraceMonkey, and Electrolysis all track mozilla-central, so we need to bump their versions here too.

The project branches are going to fail their checks until they sync up with mozilla-central, but that's OK.
