…ot User Paths for Linux, Add PlaceID to Firefox_HistoryLegacy (#54) The Linux path did not take into consideration Firefox Developer edition which uses the format qbtxwtsi.dev-edition-default rather than qbtxwtsi.default-release like the standard version. On Fedora the path for Firefox installed from dnf package manager was observed to be /home/user/.config/mozilla/firefox/profile/ which was not accounted for. Only normal users were covered by the globs and I validated that both Chromium and Firefox browsers can run as the root user and I have observed this behaviour on real life cases as well so makes sense to cover these like the SYSTEM user in Windows for example. I also noticed that on #53 the PlaceID change was not made to the Firefox_HistoryLegacy.yaml file so I replicated the changes over so that everything is mirrored. These were quick things I noticed that should improve the coverage a bit. Will be doing more deeper research over time.

Regarding Chromium browsers, a new field exists since v103 (according to https://github.com/RyanDFIR/hindsight/blob/main/pyhindsight/browsers/chrome.py#L933).
For Firefox, PlaceID is added so that "downloads" and "history" can be correlated.
