+ @brief    Returns the Firefox profile name given a Firefox profile path
+ @details  Although I did this for years by simply taking the last path
+ component of the profile path and un-tweaking it, in January 2014 I have
+ evidence from at least one user that this doesn't always work.  Specifically,
+ his profile name is "Default" but the path to his profile is
+    ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles
+ That's correct, all of the 3-dozen-or-so files and folders containing his
+ profile data are in the parent folder "Profiles" instead of in a subfolder.
+ However, his profiles.ini file contains the correct information in the 
+ following entry…
+ 
+ [Profile0]
+ Name=Default
+ IsRelative=1
+ Path=Profiles
+ Default=1
+
+ Oh, well.  So, after several hours, I have written this method which finds the
+ Firefox profiles.ini file which is in the same Home folder that the given
+ profile path is in, parses the entries in it until it finds the entry whose
+ path description resolves to the given profile path, and finally extracts from
+ that entry the profile name.
+ 
+ The old code which is 99% simpler but only works for 99+% of users, is given
+ as a comment in the implementation file.
+ 
+ This method performs the inverse of -pathForProfileName:homePath:error_p:
