`mach` has `run` and, per bug 857600, soon a `debug` command. These
launch the (built) binary and attach a debugger (gdb) respectively.
mozrunner, which is already in-tree, is what the testing harnesses use
to launch the binary; it is essentially integaration code between
profiles, environment, and the e.g. Firefox process:
https://github.com/mozilla/mozbase/tree/master/mozrunner .
We also ported the capability to attach debuggers (bug 746239).
It is underdocumented and, of course, probably imperfect, but IMHO
probably a good thing to standardize on. That said, no rush
