LibreWolf 98.0 packages: problems resolved!

Last time I had a problem with building the rpm for LibreWolf 98.0.

The research about the PGO was the hint I needed. When I disabled PGO in the build, the application compiles in half the time, and works way better! I haven't even experienced a dead tab at all yet.

I don't understand how Profile Guided Optimization is supposed to help, when disabling it makes everything work better and compile faster. But what do I know?

Now that Debian finally got around to getting Firefox 98.0, I had to get off my lazy rear end and start compiling LibreWolf 98.0 in my dpkg and rpm formats.

The dpkg is done! That one seems to behave well.

The rpm is not ready yet. I've run into this problem before, and it is plaguing me again. I don't recall how I dealt with this last time. Perhaps I didn't, because I'm still running LibreWolf 95.0 for myself on Fedora.
