WIP: newmoon compile attempt 1
The dpkg built on d2-03a but had some palemoon naming artifacts, so this commit is for building it with the attempted fixes for that.

+# Palemoon upstream
+https://github.com/MoonchildProductions/UXP/archive/PM28.7.2_Release.tar.gz
+
+# Reason for being in stackrpms
+All my distros do not package Palemoon, so I package it myself. This at one point in 2018 was approved as a officially-endorsed third-party release of Palemoon but the package has since not been re-certified.
+
+# Alternatives
+Palemoon itself is a fork from Mozilla Firefox, which is still actively maintained and packaged by pretty much every distro. Waterfox is another fork of the original codebase, and is also packaged here in this repo.
+
+# Reverse dependency matrix
+Distro | Palemoon version
+---------- | ---------------
+All | 28.10.0
+
+# Additional notes
+Credit goes to so many sources and inspirations:
+* trava90 of the Pale Moon project
+* firefox-61.0.2-3.fc28.src.rpm
+* https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/network/palemoon/palemoon.spec?expand=1
+* instructions for compiling on centos 6 and 7 http://developer.palemoon.org/Developer_Guide:Build_Instructions/Pale_Moon/Linux#head:CentOS_6
+
+# Differences from upstream
+None
