Description

When I run tests on Firefox on Android I always get a log line like:
CPU / Power usage: 9180

The power usage should be turned off by default, so I think there's a bug.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue by running tests on Firefox for Android and confirm when the CPU/power usage log appears. No file or test entry point is named, so first locate the Firefox Android power-usage path and its default setting; done means power usage is disabled by default and the log line no longer appears unless explicitly enabled.
