Seems the ANGLE renderer is causing these graphical glitches. After disabling gfx.webrender.force-angle and restarting Firefox, they seem gone.

P.S. On second check - this option also enables the software rendering.

P.S. After some more testing - software rendering with OpenGL works more fluid (scrolling doesn't stutter) than the D3D11 one.
