Draft: Add support for building base-browser

boklm requested to merge boklm/tor-browser-build:base-browser-10 into master

Closes #40522 (closed), #40501 (closed), #40500 (closed), #40499 (closed), #23656 (closed).

I was able to build a base-browser with this additional patch (since we don't have a base-browser branch in tor-browser.git yet):

I've launched this base-browser on Linux, and it opens a browser that looks like firefox.
