[Bug 1580103] [NEW] No UI to close all tabs

Public bug reported:

My use case:

I use scopes to browse, see something I like, and open it, which sends
me to the web browser. When done, I short-right-to-left-swipe to switch
back to the scope, carry on browsing, and find something else I like,
open it, and end up at the web browser.

This causes the number of open tabs to build up in the web browser.

This is perhaps a UX problem in itself, but separately from that, it
means that I end up with a ton of tabs in the browser that I want to
close.

Currently the only way to do this is to bottom swipe and tap the close
button on each one, which is tedious. There could at least be some
"Close all tabs" UI somewhere.
