…lidation Firefox parses all of its metrics.yaml/pings.yaml files at the start of every build, and validating them against the JSON schema accounts for most of that time (5.2s -> 2.8s in CI, 2.5s -> 0.7s locally when skipped). Firefox already validates these files in a separate lint job (bug 2076535), so builds don't need to do it again. The new `skip_schema_validation` parser option skips the jsonschema validation step in `_load_file`, including the check that `$schema` is a known schema; the Python-level checks still run. It is only safe when the input has been validated elsewhere, since invalid input may raise exceptions rather than produce errors. The default is unchanged.
