1711179 - resistFingerprinting: Bump spoofed Android OS version to 10

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: DOM: Security, task, P3)

Description

[Chris Peterson [:cpeterson]]

resistFingerprinting on Android should spoof OS version 10 because Android 10 is the most common Android version in the market (according to StatCounter):

https://gs.statcounter.com/android-version-market-share/mobile-tablet/worldwide/#monthly-202005-202104

38.63% = Android 10
18.02% = Android 9
12.44% = Android 11
9.17% = Android 8.1
...

And Mozilla's own Android telemetry:

23.27% = Android 10 (API 29)
17.33% = Android 9 (API 28)
9.12% = Android 11 (API 30)
8.35% = Android 7.1 (API 25)
7.82% = Android 8.1 (API 27)

I think Tor Project would prefer a flag day for this: 91 sounds good

SGTM. 91 is the next Firefox ESR.
