While tests are disabled under Fennec most have been reenabled if possible-
many tests are not relevant on Fennec.  Desktop is much faster than those
android emulators.  When we switch to Firefox 69 (May 13th) the plan is to
leave android 4.3 emulators around as tier-2 (mozilla-central/try only)
until we get all the tests ported over to the new android 7.0 x86_64
emulators which are just as fast as desktop, run geckoview, and are multi
process.  We are about halfway done with getting tests running on there.
For test suites that are running successfully on the new emulators, we will
turn them off on android 4.3, the plan is probably early Q3 to be done.
Fennec will ship off the 68 branch as that will live on ESR for a while.
