feat(android): enable Firefox Android support with min version 142
Raised minimum Firefox version from 112 to 142 to enable full Android support and eliminate version mismatch warnings. ## Changes - Updated manifest.json: strict_min_version 112 → 142 - Enables browser.permissions.request() API on Android - Full feature parity between desktop and Android ## Validation Results Before (Firefox 112+): - 1 error (data_collection_permissions) - 5 warnings (2× version, 2× Android API, 1× innerHTML) After (Firefox 142+): - 1 error (data_collection_permissions - unavoidable) - 1 warning (innerHTML in dom-utils.js - safe utility) **80% warning reduction** (5 → 1) ## Platform Support ✅ Firefox Desktop 142+ (released ~Aug 2025) ✅ Firefox Android 142+ (released ~Aug 2025) ✅ All optional permissions APIs available ✅ Full feature parity across platforms ## Trade-offs - Desktop users on Firefox 112-141: Cannot install - Acceptable: Firefox 142+ is current stable (Feb 2026) - Simplifies maintenance: One manifest for all platforms Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
