924133 - Remove Android WebApps build preprocessing

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Web Apps (PWAs), defect)

Description

[Nick Alexander :nalexander [he/him]]

The build system has some ad-hoc configurable code to adjust the maximum number of installable webapps.  We aren't going to change this frequently enough to justify the special rules, and it complicates supporting IDE builds (Eclipse, IntelliJ) significantly.  Time to get rid of it!

The existing code is flexible but will be rarely updated and
complicates the build system and IDE integration.

The existing code complicates the build system and IDE integration.
This keeps most of the flexibility while simplifying the build system.
