We shipped GTK3 in Firefox 46 and require 3.4 or higher, so should make sure that we don't update people to a build they can't run.

At the moment we're offering no updates for channels matching release*, version < 46.0, and any of GTK 2, GTK 3.0., GTK 3.1., GTK 3.2., or GTK 3.3. in the %OS_VERSION%. 

I'd like to support to the desupport message like we have on beta, but we need to push https://github.com/mozilla/balrog/commit/c2fc408e59714e79f9aba64230b773c595c5f569 into production first.

Tracking since I'd like to have this in place when we turn on updates for 46.0.1.

Note, I don't think this needs to block turning on updates, now that we have the block in place. So I am about to give the OK for other users on pre-46.0 versions to update to 46.0.1.

Updated the desupport blob to point at the 46.0 system requirements, so requests like

Rail and I tweaked this a bit today after some confusion in #release-drivers yesterday. The existing set-up had a single rule that matched <46.0 + unsupported gtk versions. This meant that all Linux users on <44.0 got no updates - because they all send gtk 2. To fix this we:
* Added a watershed rule that sends Linux users on < 45.0.2 to 45.0.2 (the last version that supports gtk2, as well as sending the gtk 3 version in the update url).
* Adjusted the priority of the existing deprecation rule to be lower than the new watershed rule, but higher than the main release rule.

Tested today on systems with GTK > 3.4.2 (could not find any lower than that) and this works as expected, as versions < 45.0.2 update to 45.0.2 first and then to 47.0.
