Fix failed updates

There was an existing block for 17.0.3esr in the config that needed to removed: https://hg.mozilla.org/build/tools/rev/b61bcb936ce6

The automation also wanted to create the past-update entry for 17.0.1esr->17.0.2esr, but it already existed. It was removed: https://hg.mozilla.org/build/tools/rev/701e6030b908

Retriggered the builder via 'Force Build.'

Snippets weren't generated for 10.0.12, so I created them by hand on the machine that ran the updates builder (mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave18):

Throttling

Callek in bug 841908 accidentally made 17.0 and 17.0.1 esr's apply to Firefox19 throttling, that is at 50% rather than unthrottled, that was resolved in an additional patch in bug 802167 with an extra production push.

Unthrottled on 2013/02/25 with a follow-up patch to bug 802167.
