meek-client [https://gitweb.torproject.org/pluggable-
transports/meek.git/tree/meek-client/meek-client.go?h=0.31#n362 doesn't
allow] a proxy username and password when using the browser helper. I
think that at the time (circa Firefox 32) it wasn't supported using the
API available to browser extensions.
But Firefox 45 [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1200802 added
credentials support] for SOCKS proxies, and while
[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1360404 it's not as
straightforward for http/https proxies], apparently what you can do is set
a [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-
ons/WebExtensions/API/webRequest/onAuthRequired webRequest.onAuthRequired]
listener, and check inside it whether [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
US/docs/Mozilla/Add-
ons/WebExtensions/API/webRequest/onAuthRequired#details details.isProxy]
is set (since Firefox 60-ish?).
