Fenix: FNX2-15893 ⁃ Remove "Library" and move items

Created on 1 May 2020 · 5Comments · Source: mozilla-mobile/fenix

Fenix "Library" is currently only accessible through the browser toolbar menu (not from the homescreen) and it only contains 2 items: Bookmarks and History

We should revisit this and determine whether we want to keep "Library" and add more items to it, or get rid of it.

I vote for getting rid of it -- it doesn't work very well in Firefox desktop either as a concept, and that feels to me one of the only reasons to maintain it in Fenix (consistency/familiarity).

Since we only have two items in the library (bookmarks, history) atm and we link to both directly from the home menu anyway, I propose to remove the library screen and update the site menu to reflect this.

Todo's:

remove "Library" header in home menu
remove "Library" entry from site menu
add "Bookmarks" and "History" to site menu
