Motivation for this change

There are critical fixes in 50.0.1: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2016-91/

@edolstra reverted the update to 50.0 due to breaking video, but we pretty well need to ship this update. I'm hoping to get some testing on this, get it fixed, and released.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing
    (nix.useSandbox on NixOS,
    or option build-use-sandbox in nix.conf
    on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • Linux
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nox --run "nox-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Sorry, something went wrong.

@grahamc it would be nice if your revert revert commit would describe why it is again reverted.
