Description

### What is this about?

Recently a number of E2E test jobs were made optional on PRs. They are now only triggered on long-running branches.

We should add a way to manually trigger these jobs, in case a PR is expected to have some impact upon them. For example, if we fix a test related to Firefox, we should run the Firefox E2E tests before merging.

Research direction

Start by locating the CI definitions for the optional E2E jobs that run on long-running branches and reviewing how pull-request triggers are configured. Add a manual way to run the relevant jobs, including the Firefox E2E tests, and verify that a pull request can invoke them before merging.
