Description
As of Firefox 64, the onboarding extension which we used to implement Tor Browser onboarding has been removed. See:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1462415
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1457565
More research is required, but it looks like Firefox's new onboarding experience is integrated into their "activity stream" interface (aka new tab page).

Following mcs suggestion, I resurrected the onboarding system addon. Then I cherry picked the original Tor onboarding commits and finally converted the bootstrapped extension into a webextension + experimental API, which is how it was done for other extensions (e.g.
formautofill).Implemented in 6 last commits of https://github.com/acatarineu/tor-browser/commits/28822 (based on current
30429branch).
