What are you trying to accomplish
Collecting moz_logs is very helpful for Firefox performance engineers.
As far as I can tell, firefox.collectMozLog does not copy the generated log file when running on Firefox for Android.
See usage:

What browser did you use?
Firefox
How to reproduce
Run a gecko application on Android (e.g. geckoview_example) and pass in the arguments, `--firefox.collectMozLog --firefox.setMozLog="timestamp,nsHttp:5"`
Expected outcome:
The moz_log.txt files are copied back along with other artifacts like performance profiles
Actual outcome:
No moz_log.txt files are copied back.

Research direction
Start by searching for collectMozLog and the Android artifact-copy path, then reproduce with a Gecko application using --firefox.collectMozLog and --firefox.setMozLog="timestamp,nsHttp:5". Done means moz_log.txt is copied back on Firefox for Android alongside the other artifacts.
