First Firefox tab/website is not in a TC (container-less) when launched from third-party apps (KeePass2, CherryTree, LibreOffice Calc) #491

Actual behavior

With Firefox closed, I launch a site from any third-party app (KeePass2, CherryTree, LibreOffice). Site in question has not been set in a container in about:preferences#containers and Containerise, i.e., site must be automatically placed in a TC. I've set TC on Automatic Mode.

TC is activated only for the second and succeeding tabs, or when the first "container-less" tab is refreshed.

OTOH, behavior is normal for sites set in permanent containers. (They don't go container-less, their permanent containers are activated right away.)

Expected behavior

First tab/site to be in a TC (unless set in a permanent container).

Steps to reproduce

(Covered in "Actual Behavior") Emphasis on Firefox being closed first when launching the site.

Thank you.

This should usually work as it should be covered by the "persistent events on startup" provided by the Firefox API. To debug this further a {debug log](https://github.com/stoically/temporary-containers/wiki/Debug-Log) would help.
