This is a tentative step toward Bug 1570409. During the Gradle transition, we had a lot of success using a --with-gradle flag that eventually became a --without-gradle flag and finally was removed entirely. I think such a flag (and corresponding top-level define) will go a long way to isolating Fennec-specific pieces of the build system (and Gecko itself!) and preparing us to jettison them as we turn mobile/android into GeckoView.

When working on GeckoView, there's no need to produce a Fennec APK.
This commit avoids doing that work at mach package time. There are
many other things we'd like to stop doing as we remove Fennec from the
tree, so we add a general flag to guard such things.
Depends on D41447
