The switch from `full-user-credentials` to `taskcluster-credentials` has now 
occurred, meaning users will see a one-off Auth0 scopes prompt for the new 
permissions next time they log into Treeherder.

The cause of the frequent log-outs is also believed to be fixed - please 
comment on bug 1437824 if experiencing otherwise. (Sessions will be maintained 
as long as the site has been visited once every 24 hours; bug 1439858 is filed 
for seeing if that can be raised to extend over weekends etc)

Best wishes,

Ed
