Allow firefox building in 32-bit systems

Even if not as much optimized (LTO)

Motivation for this change

At least have a running firefox in 32-bit systems.

Things done

  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

I added a 2nd commit because I was, in fact, porting the change from release-20.09 to master; and master introduced ltoSupport.

Disabling "-g" and LTO so there aren't memory problems.
