[🐛 Bug]: Ruby Firefox - impossible choose non-default profile (Profiles.from_name does not work)

[mingulov]

What happened?

ruby, selenium-webdriver 4.1.0 (most probably since 3.150.0)

The next line fails due to missing Util / Util.app_data_path:
Selenium::WebDriver::Firefox::Profile.from_name("profile_name")

Util.app_data_path is used twice in lib/selenium/webdriver/firefox/profiles_ini.rb, but it is removed more than 2 years ago:

32262cc

As a workaround - I have provided my own copy of that function (and everything started to work), but it would be nice to fix it.
Or is there some other way now to use profiles for Firefox in selenium?

How can we reproduce the issue?

require 'selenium-webdriver'
Selenium::WebDriver::Firefox::Profile.from_name("profile_name")

Relevant log output
