AddonListener

AddonListeners can be registered with AddonManager.addAddonListener() and will then receive notification of changes to the add-ons currently installed. These notifications come in the form of calls to methods on the listener object. A listener only needs to implement the methods corresponding to the events it cares about; missing methods will not cause any problems.
