No Mac builds.

Fixes for regressions:

• Fixed: 246923 - links in nested frames fail if same-origin check fails.

Fixes for other bugs:

• Fixed: 247322 - Able to install incompatible extensions, causing subsequent startup woes.
• Fixed: 245734 - Able to install extension into wrong application.
• Fixed: 246719 - Make link modifiers work consistently throughout Firefox.
• Fixed: Make middlemouse.contentLoadURL work on Windows.

You can now use link modifiers in many places in the browser UI, such as the back button and Go menu items. Shift opens a new window, Ctrl or Middle opens a new tab, and Alt saves. Ctrl+clicking or middle+clicking a UI link selects the new tab (since you're unlikely to continue reading the current tab after opening a URL from the UI), but you can make it leave the current tab selected by holding Shift or by setting the hidden pref browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground to true.
