Hello!

I'm very pleased to say yesterday we landed the final piece of iOS code to
enable sending tabs to Firefox for iOS using WebPush.

This is an important milestone for Firefox Accounts and Firefox for iOS –
in that we have a well understood connection from FxA to users' iOS devices.

This will be hitting our BuddyBuild nightlies shortly, so now would be a
good time to start downloading it in readiness to test.

The final steps to testing this feature are configuration: installing APNS
certificates for BuddyBuild builds on autopush servers, and flipping the
feature flags on for a widening testing pool.

These are respectively covered by:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1357762

There may also be some build issues which up until now are difficult to
test, around switching aps-environments (thanks Xcode!).

Although there have been many people involved, special thanks should go to
:kitcambridge, :jrconlin, :jorem, :rfkelly, :sleroux and :sarentz for their
help in getting this feature working and landed.

Many thanks, and regards,

– James
