Description

xpcshell is contained in common.tests.zip under the common folder, but it needs to be next to the firefox binary for it to find some locale data settings. We should move it after extraction.

It also needs xpcshell.fuzzmanagerconf created for FuzzManager.

Research direction

Locate the extraction handling for common.tests.zip and the Firefox binary. Verify how xpcshell is currently placed, then make the requested output place xpcshell next to Firefox and create xpcshell.fuzzmanagerconf. Done means both artifacts are present in the expected locations after extraction.
