This PR builds on [AC##9024][1], and implements setting the Nimbus endpoints from [a secret set at build time][2].
For production use, this requires a secret named `nimbus_url` to be put into CI.
Note: Nimbus is currently behind a feature flag.
If developers wish to use a Nimbus server for local development, you can set the url by adding an entry into local.properties, e.g.:
```
nimbus.remote-settings.url=https://settings.stage.moz4ws.net
```
Without setting server, Nimbus will be able to function, except no experimental definitions will be fetched, and features under experiment will be configured as if not enrolled in the experiment.

New API (installBuiltIn/ensureBuiltin) requires
- Gecko IDs and new permissions
- Extension will only be re-installed if it has a new version
This includes a gradle task to automatically generate a
new version in manifest.json for every build so we don't
forget to update the version and end up with changes that
are never applied.
