NoScript developers offer this useful tip on the page you linked: IMPORTANT: if you're using Firefox 57 you'll need to open about:config and turn the extensions.legacy.enabled preference to true, otherwise the browser will refuse to install Noscript. Furthermore, you need a "blueish" Firefox, either Firefox Developer Edition or Nightly. The preference trick doesn't work in "orange" Firefox (beta/release). NoScript is currently a Hybrid WebExtension, and therefore won't install on Firefox 57 pre-releases without this trick. Before Firefox 57 is released in the stable channel, a pure WebExtension NoScript will be available an you'll be automatically migrated to it. *sigh* This indeed means the release in Fedora should be coordinated at least with all Firefox extensions package mainainers. Martin, have you contacted all the extension maintainers directly to coordinate? If not, please do so now.
