IronFox 159.0

Changes

• Updated to Firefox 159.0.
  
• Implemented a built-in app updater.
  
  • The updater is enabled by default and notifies users when new IronFox releases are available.
    
  • When an update is available, users will either have the option to download/install IronFox directly, or will be prompted to open the external app store that IronFox was installed from.
    
  • Users who have installed IronFox from external app stores (except for Accrescent) can switch to having updates managed and downloaded/installed directly by us (by enabling the Download updates directly option at Settings -> IronFox settings -> Updates).
    
  • The updater can also automatically download new releases for users (Enabled by default for users who download IronFox from ironfoxoss.org or our GitLab releases, unsupported for Accrescent users), which can be controlled with the Download updates automatically setting at Settings -> IronFox settings -> Updates.
    
  • From a privacy and security perspective: The updater enforces HTTPS, performs SHA512sum validation for downloads, and its connections are protected with certificate pinning. Android also checks and ensures that the downloaded app signature matches.
    
  • At the cost of security, the updater can be disabled entirely with the Check for updates automatically setting at Settings -> IronFox settings -> Updates, though this is NOT recommended.
    
• Minor tweaks/enhancements.
