[notify] firefox: updated to 63.0
firefox 63 will be the last firefox version released by me. Starting from firefox 64 I will replace firefox with the official binary build.
This will have multiple advantages: We will avoid the endless buildtime horrorshow that has forced us to depend on stuff like rust, clang and starting with firefox 64: nodejs, which was my personal breaking point.
List of notable obsolete dependencies include rust, clang and autoconf-2.13.
Ahem! Building firefox 63 fails on my side. The build stops early during dependencies checking: checking for cbindgen... not found [followed by messages of attempts at recovery] I'll wait for firefox 64... ;)
