Comment (by sysrqb):

 Adding some more notes.
 1. mkdir l10n-central
 1. pushd l10n-central
 1. clone target locale (such as es-ES, hg clone https://hg.mozilla.org
 /l10n-central/es-ES)
 1. popd
 1. Add `--with-l10n-base=` in mozconfig
 1. ./mach configure ...
 1. ./mach build && ./mach package
 1. ./mach build installers-es-ES

 This results in a localized apk. There is an inconsistency when built with
 #28051 because Orbot doesn't learn about the new locale until later, but
 we can correct that. Overall, Fennec, torbutton, and Orbot use the correct
 localized strings.
