please ignore this patch

i will keep librewolf using www/mozilla for now

i have an improved version of the patch that is much cleaner, but still 
needs some tweaking.

for now, i will simply update librewolf as always, using tnhe current 
design. i'm about to send a simple patch that just updates it to 
librewolf 155.0.1-1
