[tor-project] PieroV's Monthly Status Report, September 2022

Hi everyone!
Here is my status report for September 2022.
This month I have worked on refactoring tor-launcher and moving it to the main Tor Browser patchset [0].
It took me a long time, but I am sure it will help the Arti transition, too.

Apart from that, I added a patch to mitigate a font fingerprinting vector [1] and managed to get another patch upstreamed to Firefox [2].

Finally, last week I started to unify the GeckoView patch set that we use for Android with the patch set we use for the desktop version of Tor Browser [3].

Best,
Pier
