Add support for Extension Auto-Installer

See original GitHub issue

Extension Auto-Installer support would give add-on developers the power to test their changes without restarting Firefox. jpm officially supports this via its watchpost command, but it sounds like it’s as simple as POSTing a new .xpi, so WebExtensions developers could benefit from this as well.

This was just the first step, automatic reloading comes next.

Hmm… yes… this sounds like it could work! Not exactly trivial but I’ll give it a try (though it might take some time). Thanks for the idea!
