As I understand it for secure update to work the extension will need the
following entry in the install.rdf file
<em:updateKey> = This is the public key, it's used to verify the
update.rdf signature
The update.rdf will need
<em:updateHash> = Fingerprint of the xpi file
<em:signature> = This is signed hash of the install.rdf file,
this must be created using the private key
