Message:

firefox: Tweak mozconfig

1. Drop --enable-optimize because it's the default.
2. Use -Wl,-z,pack-relative-relocs as a replacement for elf-hack.
3. Add --enable-rust-simd for SIMD optimization, like Arch and Gentoo.
4. Make the formatting (captialization and punctuation) of comments more consistent.
