Packaging fix for the Firefox submission — no functional changes.

browser_specific_settings.gecko.data_collection_permissions (which v1.6.0 added, because addons.mozilla.org now requires it) needs Firefox 140 on desktop and 142 on Firefox for Android, but the manifest still declared a minimum of 115. Mozilla's addons-linter flagged it, along with the popup's permissions.request call — the "Allow on all sites" button — which isn't implemented on Firefox for Android 115.

  • gecko.strict_min_version → 140.0
  • new gecko_android.strict_min_version → 142.0 (desktop and Android minimums are separate keys)

addons-linter on the Firefox build now reports 0 errors, 0 notices; the 3 remaining warnings are UNSAFE_VAR_ASSIGNMENT notices for static SVG icon strings, which AMO accepts.

This drops support for Firefox 115–139. 140 is the current ESR. If you'd rather keep older Firefox, the key is only a warning at 115, never an error.
