We supported it at some point but it was broken for some time and we
eventually removed it. Now we can restore it. Release versions of Wolvic
must not use maven GeckoView versions because they don't include our
updates to the Wolvic-Gecko communication protocol, meaning that
for example WebXR won't work.

However we can still use it for super-quick bisects for example, or to test
2D browser features in advance without having to build Gecko.

Updated build instructions since we are now using the release channel and local GeckoView won't get substituted with that. https://github.com/Igalia/wolvic/wiki/Developer-workflow:-building-steps/_compare/7b87d900bcc71ef9697b4e1593eee7eabf4a3378...3aa0fe4b14437ac0eff1021e07f9f3109a45343b

Hmm that's a really good point. I wonder whether it actually makes sense to enable the release channel because not getting the substitution because of that seems a potential source of big issues...

I'm thinking about reverting
