All required libraries have been imported and make sure that
none of them are external dependencies. To achieve this, created
a virt env and verified.

Modified usage information and added combined command.

Modified the main() function to read the --save-only command-line
option and set the output_file variable accordingly.

Modified the trace_end() function to check for the output_file variable.
If it is set, the profiler data is saved to a local file in Gecko
Profile format, or the profiler.firefox.com is opened on the default browser.

Included trace_begin() to initialize the Firefox Profiler and launch
the default browser to display the profiler.firefox.com.

Added a new function launchFirefox() to start a local server and launch the
profiler UI on the default browser with the appropriate URL.

Created the "CORSRequestHandler" class to enable Cross-Origin Resource Sharing.

Summary:
This integration now includes a exiting feature to conveniently host the
Gecko Profile data on a local server and open it directly in the default
web browser. This means that users can now effortlessly visualize and
analyze the profiler results with just a single click. The addition of the
--save-only command-line option allows users to save the profiler output
to a local file in Gecko Profile format, but the real highlight lies
in the capability to seamlessly launch a local server, making the data
accessible to Firefox Profiler via a web browser. In addition, it's
important to highlight that all data are hosted locally, eliminating
any concerns about data privacy rules and regulations.
