[tor-qa] Tor Browser 7.5a5 is ready for testing

Hi all! Tor Browser 7.5a5 is ready for testing. Bundles can be found on: https://people.torproject.org/~gk/builds/7.5a5-build4/ Besides the usual Firefox security nd extensions updates this alpha contains a bunch of long-awaited features: 1) We ship Tor 0.3.2.1-alpha, the first alpha release in the 0.3.2 series, with support for next generations onion services and a new circuit scheduler, KIST.[1] 2) Thanks to the work of Jed Davis we are able to ship a content sandbox for Linux users. While the content sandbox is disabled in Firefox 52 ESR versions, which Tor Browser is based on, backported patches allow us to protect our Linux users with the same mechanisms that are provided to regular Firefox users. 3) The content sandbox is enabled for Windows users as well. While we still need to clean up our workarounds to get the sandboxing code to work with our mingw-w64 compiler, we think the enabled sandbox is ready for a wider testing in our alpha series. Please give it a try if you can.
