Fix file picker which is broken in Thunderbird 125

[RealRaven2000]

According to bug 1878401 a parameter was changed in mozilla-central for the interface nsIFilePicker.init() - it will fail when we pass in window as first parameter. The c-c source code shows that instead we need to plug in window.browsingContext. This needs to be fixed in a way so that QuickFolders stays compatible with Thunderbird 115 but is also compatible with Thunderbird 125 and later.

Here is what happens (tested in Tb 128.0b1) when we try to save the configuration from the license tab:

no file picker dialog appears; in error console we see the following exception:

[Exception... "Could not convert JavaScript argument arg 0 [nsIFilePicker.init]"  nsresult: "0x80570009 (NS_ERROR_XPC_BAD_CONVERT_JS)"  location: "JS frame :: jar:file:///I:/Thunderbird_Profiles/ct4akusa.Beta-Test/extensions/quickfolders@curious.be.xpi!/chrome/content/api/Utilities/implementation.js :: fileConfig :: line 35"  data: no]

Here is a fixed version:

QuickFolders-mx-6.5.2pre38.zip

This should also be backwards compatible with ESR 115 and all versions in between that and 128.* - no new branch is planned!

To try the version above download zip file and drag the file into Thunderbird Add-ons Manager (do not extract contents, it won't install like that)
