We made a new static analysis bounty, one of which is using CodeQL. To do this, the researcher must generate a database of Firefox which takes many hours (5-16 or something I think?) and requires a beefy machine.
I want to pre-generate the database for every release of Firefox. We are also investigating using codeql ourselves as static-analysis, which might involve generating a database on every mozilla-central push, depending on how efficient we can make database generation.
Right now, I'm interested in figuring out how to successfully get a job in-tree to do this generated (before worrying about where/when to run it.)

Would you have any suggestions for how I should change this patch to accomplish this goal? I'm trying to wrap the final ./mach build command that gets run in mozharness...

There's a r+ patch which didn't land and no activity in this bug for 2 weeks.
:tjr, could you have a look please?
