Description

This should include:

  • a link to the web inferface to manage the account
  • a button to "sync now"
  • a way to change the device name
  • an option to sign out
  • a way to configure which data to sync (this would be the same or very similar to the post-sign-in screen from #8035)

This could look similar to this Firefox for Android screen:
