You seem to be confusing NPAPI plugins with browser extensions.
Firefox doesn't allow addons that contain binary XPCOM components anymore. Everything has to be JS, whether the addon is XPCOM based, addon SDK (JetPack) based, or WebExtensions-based.
NPAPI is deprecated and is to the point where it is only used for Flash.
