Utility to get the url of a particular version/release of a mozilla product (like firefox/b2g)
Find the url where a given mozilla product lives for all kinds of branches / releases / pre-releases.
Inspired by firefox-get which I initially contributed to for the b2g-support... The primary difference is mozilla-get-url is designed to handle most mozilla products up front and uses ftp rather then html scraping.
var locate = require('mozilla-get-url');
var options = {
/**

- default: release
- examples: ['release', 'prerelease', 'tinderbox']
Channels determine how builds are fetched and map to lib/channels/$CHANNEL.
