Keep working on train-hop tool!
TODO
- [x] Get rid of spurious semicolon
- [x] Test that jobs go red if there are more than 2 failures per job/platform pair and no passes
- [ ] Clean up the locales report
- [x] I want to not show rows if there are no missing or pending strings
- [x] Compute strings that are missing vs pending
- [x] I want each locale row to tell me how many are missing, and how many are pending
- [ ] If newtab.ftl in Nightly is newer, I want to link to its revision log
- [x] "Train-hopping is blocked." is too strong, it _might_ be blocked. It's up to us to decide.
- [x] When expanded, I want the list to be more readable and maybe to link out to Pontoon for the missing string
- [x] I want the list of missing / pending strings to be constrained and scrollable
- [ ] Use jq-web library (https://github.com/fiatjaf/jq-web) to query Experimenter for active deploys, rollouts and experiments.
- [x] Get rid of spurious semicolon
