Description
`tabs.favicon` is deprecated as of 1.15 and `places/favicon`'s `getFavicon()` does not work in many cases, as it is still marked unstable. Therefore, for now, the getting of tabs' favicons is done using Google. If a better way is found or the above method becomes stable again, the add-on will get updated accordingly.

Research direction
No repository file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the code that retrieves tab favicons, then compare the deprecated tabs.favicon and unstable places/favicon getFavicon() APIs with the current Google-based approach. Done means a reliable in-add-on favicon retrieval path is identified and adopted if available.
