 The current Tor Browser Android translation.git branch seems to contain
 all Fennec strings from  https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-
 central/file/812e732d0928/mobile/android/base/locales/en-
 US/android_strings.dtd, which is unnecessary because these strings are
 already continuously updated and translated by Mozilla.

 So we should remove
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/translation.git/tree/en/android_strings.dtd?h
 =tba-android_stringsdtd

 Probably most Tor Browser strings are shared between Desktop and Android.
 So we should not duplicate these either. We could introduce a .dtd for
 TBA-only strings. Or we could share .dtd and .properties files between
 Desktop and Android. Any strings only needed for Desktop can be ignored by
 Android and vice versa.
