Right now we have a "FENNEC_GECKOAPP_STARTUP_ACTION" histogram probe for
this launch data, but I have a patch to migrate it to UI telemetry (which I
need to finish and land):
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1256415

Once it's in UI telemetry, we should be able to correlate it with the first
run UI telemetry sessions that we have. I'm not a SQL expert, but I bet
someone else could help you write a query for this in re:dash.

How can we get this data?

There shouldn't be multiple systems. The one path forward should be UI
telemetry for things like this.

As for finding the specific probes for specific cases, I think the only
universal solution for that is "look at the code". We could write some sort
of query to spit out all the different probes we have, but without looking
at the code it's hard to know exactly what they mean.
