Re: [url-tests] Extend stability bot to report browser version (#4558)

Thanks for the tip, @jgraham! I have no insight about how stable the location or format of that file is, though I know you wouldn't make that recommendation unless it was "reasonably stable." Still, it occurred to me that it might not be intended for programmatic consumption, and then I realized the same was true for the output of `chrome --version`. It would be a shame to fail a build due to a change in an implementation detail like how version information is published. So in addition to using `platform.ini` to identify the installed version of Firefox, I've added a bit of logic to report errors for any "retrieve version" operation while continuing the build.

If this looks good to you, I'm happy to squash the relevant changes and remove the irrelevant one--let me know.
