It contains some minor fixes.

This ships out compatibility to the newest Firefox version 46.
|
|
The file is just used to set up package information and relations. It is
not needed in the package contents.
When included nonetheless, it can cause Firefox to consider the Add-On
as signed because of the additional file lacking any checksum or
verification.
Hiding it effectively excludes it from the installation.

Because of a bug in libarchive, extracting the XPI archive through
makepkg's automated process leaves the contents of the META-INF
directory scrambled. This causes Firefox to reject the activation of the
Add-On as long as "xpinstall.signatures.required" is not set to to
"false" in "about:config". Unzip preserves the content flawlessly.
The underlying bug in libarchive [1] is already fixed, but the changes
are not yet shipped out through a release. An Arch Linux bug [2] also
tracks the case. This commit shall be reverted as soon as the latter is
marked as resolved.

Despite the wild card * not coping hidden files, this does not exclude
such in subdirectories. A reliable method to exclude files by a pattern
like "starting with a dot" would be rsync. But to not pull it in as an
additional dependency, copy and find are preferred.

Hidden files are normally only used to manage the source code of the
extension. They are not needed in and have no direct relation to the
compiled package and can thus be left out safely.
At this moment, there are no hidden files in this extension. So this
change happens just in anticipation to future additions and not raising
the need to increment the pkgrel.

The addons.mozilla.org API provides updated information about Add-On
compatibility more recent than the install.rdf file included in the
extension. Restricting package relations according to it yields a wider
version range, especially with newer versions.
