firefox: enable official branding
As stated by Sylvestre Ledru (@sylvestre) on Nov 22, 2017 at https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/31843#issuecomment-346372756 we have permission to use the official firefox branding. Fur purposes of documentation the statement of @sylvestre: > As the person who did part of the work described in the LWN article > and release manager working for Mozilla, I can confirm the statement > that I made in > https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=815006 > > @garbas shared with me the list of patches applied for the Nix package. > As they are just for portability and tiny modifications, they don't > alter the experience of the product. In parallel, Rok also shared the > build options. They seem good (even if I cannot judge the quality of the > packaging of the underlying dependencies like sqlite, png, etc). > Therefor, as long as you keep the patch queue sane and you don't alter > the experience of Firefox users, you won't have any issues using the > official branding.
