CircleCI configuration

The CircleCI instance has to have a FIREBASE_DEPLOY_TOKEN set. This is tied to a specific firebase user. If that user leaves the organisation, the token will need to be reset. To do so run firebase login:ci and follow the instructions there and then on CircleCI.

CircleCI environment variables are defined here:
