Firefox ESR builds will use the "esr" update channel. As per the channel-prefs.js file:

pref("app.update.channel", "esr");

The update script will need to account for this.
Actually, we aren't doing updates for 10.0 ESR since there is nothing to update from. However, we will need it in place for 10.1 ESR.
So that means we probably will get two channels here: 'esr' and 'esr-test'. I will come up with a patch which can be reviewed, but I would like to wait with the checkin until we really need it and are able to test.

Attached patch Patch v1Splinter Review
Adds the esr and esrtest update channels with a little bit of refactoring. I have removed 'None' from choices because we do not want to support '--channel=None'. In such a case the option can simply be skipped.

Anthony please as releng if we get the esrtest channel.

This patch has been tested with the esr build and everything looks fine. So we could even check it in right away.

Thanks Henrik. Note that we won't be able to verify this until we actually get updates. This will happen with Firefox 10.1 ESR.
