Title:
  Remove xul-ext-unity, -webaccounts, -websites-integration from archive

Status in unity-firefox-extension package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in webaccounts-browser-extension package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in webapps-greasemonkey package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Remove it from the archive completely in 15.10+ as the add-ons will be
  disabled anyway per Firefox signing policies.  They may be "zeroed
  out" on older releases (being handled separately).  Mozilla's signing
  policy will disable these anyway (Fx 42 in December), but might notify
  the users of the blocked add-ons.

  Binary packages:  xul-ext-unity, xul-ext-webaccounts, xul-ext-websites-integration
  Source packages: unity-firefox-extension,  webapps-greasemonkey, webaccounts-browser-extension

  These are not in Ubuntu and the only reverse depends should be removed
  soon (ubuntukylin-desktop)[1] like it was for Ubuntu (standard)[2]

  Ideally, for the 15.10 release.
