* Extensions now work properly. The extensions datasource etc. are

now generated at build time (it turns out to be possible to do that
  non-interactively, after all).

* Fixed creation of the bookmarks file (and other stuff) when creating
  a new profile.  When a new profile is created, it's copied from a
  default profile which is part of the Firefox installation.  However,
  since the default profile directory is in the Nix store, it's
  read-only.  Firefox keeps the read-only permission when copying the
  profile, so creating files in it (such as adding the bookmarks file)
  fails.  The `writable-copies' patch is a quick hack that adds write
  permission when copying files/directories.
