Summary:
Interface to transform system information to a format palatable to
Description:
Throughout Mozilla Python code, checking the underlying platform is done in many different ways. The various checks needed lead to a lot of copy and pasting, leaving the reader to wonder....is this specific check necessary for (e.g.) an operating system? Because information is not consolidated, checks are not done consistently, nor is it defined what we are checking for. MozInfo proposes to solve this problem. MozInfo is a bridge interface, making the underlying (complex) plethora of OS and architecture combinations conform to a subset of values of relevance to Mozilla software. The current implementation exposes relevant key, values: `os`, `version`, `bits`, and `processor`.
