- Rebased patch to apply to torbutton after the tor-browser#40679 fix

Version bumps and changelog update

`lsb_release -r` outputs testing/unstable on Debian testing, the slash
is seen as directory separator, and makes the build fail in turn.
Therefore, we decided to remove any lsb_release related variables from
the filename in the Python build script.

Version bumps and changelog update

Additionally, we fix wrong/missing entries.

This reverts commit 2a89fc9e.
We do not need it anymore, because we resolved tor-browser#40685,
instead.

While building android-components with gradle 7.0.2 we get the following
error:

  A problem occurred evaluating project ':browser-awesomebar'.
    > Failed to apply plugin 'com.android.internal.library'.
    > ANDROID_SDK_HOME is set to the root of your SDK: /var/tmp/dist/android-toolchain/android-sdk-linux
      ANDROID_SDK_HOME was meant to be the parent path of the preference folder expected by the Android tools.
      It is now deprecated.

      To set a custom preference folder location, use ANDROID_USER_HOME.

      It should NOT be set to the same directory as the root of your SDK.
      To set a custom SDK location, use ANDROID_HOME.

To avoid this error, we don't set ANDROID_SDK_HOME and only set ANDROID_HOME.

application-services is refering to an ndk version which includes the
build number, and expects a directory with this version number in the
$SDK_HOME/ndk directory, so we add a symlink with that name.

New Android Gradle Plugin versions ignore the ANDROID_NDK_HOME
environment variable, and expect to find the NDK in directory
$SDK_HOME/ndk.

We still keep our build of python for the Linux builds since we are
using an older Debian release there.

We should group the Windows-only related tickets in a Windows section.
