thunderbird: Tweak mozconfig

1. Drop --enable-optimize=O2 because it's the default.
2. Use -Wl,-z,pack-relative-relocs as a replacement for elf-hack. Drop --enable-linker=gold because gold does not support this.
3. Add --enable-rust-simd for SIMD optimization, like Arch and Gentoo.
4. Copy the comment for official branding (with legal implication) from Firefox.
