Update Public Suffix for M-59 before Stable

Project Member Reported by rsleevi@chromium.org, Apr 12 2017

Issue description

(Reposting explanation from Umbrella Bug, Issue 610495)

Chrome ships a copy of the Public Suffix List ( https://publicsuffix.org ) for a variety of security purposes. Because it's key to web origin security, it needs to be reliably available before any networking, and is thus baked into the binary (rather than a component updater).

The list changes over time, and so this list must be updated every release to include the latest changes.

This is a data file-only change that includes the expressed security policies of domain holders, from the domain holders.

For every release, a bug will be created to track that releases' updates to the PSL.

rsleevi@ Since this issue is marked as RB-Stable, can we get any latest update on this bug?
The answer is that the change is merged 2 weeks before the Stable Branch is cut - that is, 4 weeks into beta, we update the file at the last possible moment. So this isn't due for quite some time.

I realize that this series of bugs, unlike the previous series, didn't clearly state that. I'll make sure future bugs clearly indicate that no action will be taken until 2 weeks before stable.
Reminder that M59 Stable is launch is coming soon (less than 2 weeks)! Your bug is labelled as Stable ReleaseBlock, pls make sure to land the fix and get it merged into the release branch ASAP so it gets enough baking time in Beta (before Stable promotion). Thank you!

rlseevi@ - can we please make this change? We are less than a week away from Early Stable desktop (May 31) and just hit 5th beta cycle for M59.

No ICANN TLDs came online in this time. We'll defer for the next update, which will also merge in a number of the upstream PRs.
