We will start supporting updates in the nightly channel only for a
limited set of locales.

Previously we used "default" as the channel name for nightly builds,
which is the channel name intended for local builds. We are now
switching to "nightly" as the channel name.

Include the current day in the nightly version number, so that each
build gets a different version number.

We get this version number using a perl function, and a "state"
variable, so that the day when the build was started is used.
This avoids issues when a build is started on a day but finishs on a
different day.

In the nightly directory, the builds are now stored using the version
instead of just the date.

We also allow overriding this version number by using the
TORBROWSER_NIGHTLY_VERSION environment variable. This could be useful
for example if you need to generate incremental mars for the version
from the previous day.

Backport go patch #29674 that drops the TLS section on Android.

Matthew Finkel authored 5 years ago and Georg Koppen committed 5 years ago

We integrate building Pluggable Transports for Android to solve #32303
in particular later on but it is important for providing snowflake
support as well at some point (see: #28672)

The bulk of the patch got written by boklm when trying to provide
snowflake support for Android (#28672).

This reverts commit 3c7fb0e6.

And, no, the release preparations concerned 9.5a2 and not 9.5a1

Changelog update and versions bump

This fixes #21004 and #27307 on our side.

When checking our .mar and .exe files for signing errors we keep the
checked files around until the whole check is done. This essentially
leads to doubling the amount of disk space for them during that time,
which could make the difference between someone being able to check
them successfully or not.

There is actually no need, though, to keep all the binaries until the
whole signature check is done and we remove the checked bundle from now
on immediately after a particular check finished.

Changelog update and versions bump

Now that https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1547519 got
backported (to esr68.2.0) we can re-enable jemalloc for Windows users.
