However we keep setting MAR_OLD_FORMAT=1 on the stable release for now.

Mozilla switched from Bzip2 to LZMA as compression algorithm for MAR
files during th Firefox 56. That means esr52-based Tor Browsers don't
understand LZMA yet. Thus, we still use Bzip2 for the first esr60-based
MAR files and switch afterwards to LZMA.

We update the update_responses script to be able to specify a different
$releases_dir for each version. When generating incremental mars, this
allows us to set the default releases_dir to {alpha,release}/signed and
the current version's releases_dir to {alpha,release}/unsigned.

Create a tar file in directory {alpha,release}/update-responses/, to
make it a little easier to copy them to the host where they will be
deployed.

Add the dmg2mar makefile rules.

Add the update_responses and incrementals makefile rules.

The update_responses script is identical to what we have in
tor-browser-bundle.git, however the config.yml file it is using is now
generated using the infos from rbm.

The 'make signtag-release' and 'make signtag-alpha' commands can be
used to tag a stable or alpha release using the version informations
from rbm.conf.
