Feature: Sets different fallback chains. (#2431)

User has the ability to select the fallback chain by selecting the browser flavor. If the user wants a specific version (browserFlavor) the extension will behave in the same way as before, otherwise the first thing we will try to get is a working version of the tools from the CDN fallback address. This process takes less than 1s, making it faster for most of the users
