Update on Icecat 115

Hi all,
Good news and bad news. 

Good news first:

I managed to build Icecat version 115.1.0esr.
It apparently works, but many anti-features work too.
I also made some changes after running makeicecat, because of a couple
of sed commands that I still have to sort out.

Changes in makeicecat:
https://paste.classictetris.net/L2Ng8d.sh

Bad news: 

It still connects to a lot of different third parties services.
To quote a few:
shavar.services.mozilla.com,
detectportal.firefox.com,
push.services.mozilla.com,
ipv4only.arpa,
tracking-protection.cdn.mozilla.net,
aus5.mozilla.org,
content-signature-2.cdn.mozilla.net,
ciscobinary.openh264.org

So I definitely missed something, I think I will have to go through
makeicecat and run the commands one by one, manually, so I can see what
happens and what is left. Some might change a file leaving it
syntactically correct but with some content off; while others might
miss the changes at once. 

More bad news: 
anti features like synchronization, pocket and more are still working.
Also I couldn't find LibreJS.

For a quicky, the Debian package:
https://codeberg.org/chippy/gnuzilla/releases/tag/v115.1.0esr

Should this go to gnuzilla-dev instead?

Thanks,
Chippy.
