Comment:

 For review:

 https://github.com/azadi/tor-browser-build-1/tree/bug-26204

 This commit adds support for building and bundling fxc2.

 Since the `Makefile` upstream is pretty simple and has no `install`
 targets for example, I manually do that in the `fxc2/build` file. Ideally,
 there are a few changes we could make upstream:

 - add a proper version
 - improve the `Makefile`
 - create and sign a release

 But I am not sure if that is required and I am assuming that the current
 changes on our end are enough. If you feel that we should submit a patch
 upstream instead, let me know.
