Sync with Firefox account sync #46

It's possible that you make it sync directly with your Firefox account, no need to add third-party accounts, and that working across devices in the style of Firefox's own window sync?

Firefox Sync currently does not allow extensions to use it to store their own data except for minor configuration settings.

Another reading list add-on for Firefox stores its sync data in the user's bookmarks; the user would have to ensure that bookmarks are enabled for Firefox Sync to sync their reading list along with it. I have chosen not to go that route due to the constraints on the data format (the reading list data would be limited to the data format used for browser bookmarks).

@aecreations This will allow to sync (add new items, remove, etc) reading list on mobile FF. It will be great to have this feature. Your extension is great and very similar to what Chrome currently have. The only blocker for me is a sync with FF on Android...
