Firefox running in wayland mode is unable to find and load
libEGL.so (and says so on stdout). This puts it in "basic"
mode (unaccelerated graphics) and disables WebGL. Fix this by adding
libglvnd to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
With a recent change to firefox (that landed in 67) a new profile is
created whenever the install location changes. Since our install
location (the binary path) always changes when we do a new build it is
rather annoying.
Setting the environment variable `SNAP_NAME` to `firefox` is supposed to
workaround the issue.

Firefox now requires `llvm-objdump` during the build phase. The aarch64
patches do no longer apply. So far I am guessing that they have been
merged. We should verify that.
You can now optionally invoke update-source-versions with:
* --system flag changing the host platform, to be passed dirrectly to Nix commands.
This is useful for binary packages which have different sources for each platform.
* --file flag allowing to change the file to be modified. This is useful for packages
that offer multiple variants, listed in a different file than the derivation itself;
e.g. packages.nix of Sublime Text 3.
* --version-key, which is now a keyword flag instead of a positional argument.
Whenever we create scripts that are installed to $out, we must use runtimeShell
in order to get the shell that can be executed on the machine we create the
package for. This is relevant for cross-compiling. The only use case for
stdenv.shell are scripts that are executed as part of the build system.
Usages in checkPhase are borderline however to decrease the likelyhood
of people copying the wrong examples, I decided to use runtimeShell as well.
