Add geo lookup support #273
Description
Migrated here from the deprecated pioneer-utils repo: mozilla/pioneer-utils#28:
We can leverage the Mozilla Location Service to do region based lookups to narrow down what country a client is in.
Hitting this URL will give you a JSON blob telling you what country you're in:
https://location.services.mozilla.com/v1/countryWe can use that to do better than locale testing for geolocation for pioneer addons. This would at least allow pioneer addons to uninstall themselves if they detect the client is in the 'wrong' country.
Full documentation for the region API can be found over here: https://mozilla.github.io/ichnaea/api/region.html
