Startup can wait on a remote managed-settings refresh, with a deadline

Startup can briefly wait for refreshed managed settings, with a deadline so it never hangs.

What

A new startup step races a fetch of remote managed settings against a consent prompt and reports one of four outcomes: refreshed, failed, timed out, or consent pending, meaning a consent dialog is up so startup does not block on the fetch. When the deadline expires it records a deadline_expired telemetry event.

Details
  • Telemetry event name: remote_managed_settings_startup_await.
  • Neither the event name nor the outcome strings exist in 2.1.241; this is a new path used only by managed and remote settings deployments.
Evidence

remote_managed_settings_startup_await

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
