Comment:

 The Mozilla ticket actually flips just a pref. The implementation work got
 done back in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1176968. One can
 see from the test at https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-
 central/rev/48f644f1c41e that the webkit version is essentially an alias
 for the moz version (as the [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
 US/docs/Web/CSS/@media/-webkit-device-pixel-ratio implementation notes in
 the Browser compatibility table for Firefox] say).
 `GetScreenPixelsPerCSSPixel()` calls `GetDevicePixelRatio()` and that in
 turn `GetDevicePixelRatioOuter()` which is taking care of our
 fingerprinting concerns (https://searchfox.org/mozilla-
 esr68/source/dom/base/nsGlobalWindowOuter.cpp#3685). So, we are good here.
