Description

A notification should now appear every time you update Code to a new version, in order to get more users to read the release notes:

• You should get this message every time Code updates to a new version.
• You should not get it when you install a brand new Code.
• Note that it is the semver version that needs to change in order to get this popup, not the commit ID.
• The previous version is always stored in the storage key storage://global/releasenotes/lastversion. It is the value used to figure out whether an update happened, so feel free to edit this when testing.

@joaomoreno Can I help test this somehow? I see there's a storage key, but I'm not sure how to access that, to change the version number.

[joaomoreno]

Sure. The Chrome dev tools lets you modify local storage values.

Whoops, shouldn't have closed this, since there was a remaining open issue referencing this.

We close testplan-items once all the testers have checked off. So it is fine to close this
We do not track state of issues here.
