Intermittents update (whimboo)

• [fixed] Android marionette tests are now run on Android 7.0 x86_64 (Bug 1500509)
  • Huge performance win, so all tests can be run in a single chunk
  • formerly each job took about 15-30min, now the single job via packet.net runs about 10min
  • allowed us to re-enable 7 skipped tests, and all the navigation tests for debug builds without running into the zygote top-crash anymore
  • New failure for opening a new focused tab because we don't wait for a focus event (Bug 1499082)
• [needs feedback] Marionette client hangs 1000s due to channel errors (Bug 1521447)
  • mozprocess fails to kill the process and unexpectedly hangs
  • the exact cause needs still a bit more investigation
• Lots of Mochitest and Mn failures on Windows10 64bit due to missing sessionstore-windows-restored notification. Maybe having our own marionette-startup-requested notification (bug 1530979) could fix it.
