ATN Web Extension Support

ATN(addons.thunderbird.net https://addons.thunderbird.net/) now
supports web extensions for Thunderbird without having to use any
workarounds.

Web Extensions should no longer get Firefox-only compatibility by
default, so you shouldn't have to manually add Thunderbird
compatibility to web extension versions after upload anymore.
The "Compatible with Firefox 57+" banner has been removed.
'strict_min_version' in manifest.json now requires '60.0' or greater.
o If you upload a version with a 'strict_min_version' lower than
60.0, the validator will fail and state the required minimum.
o This does not apply retroactively to previously uploaded
versions or files.

Thanks to Geoff(darktrojan) for the patch
https://github.com/thundernest/addons-server/pull/59.

Thank you! That was badly needed. That resolves a few of the issues listed in https://github.com/thundernest/addons-server/issues/50
