Similar to #20283, Mozilla cleaned up their 13+ year old code for finding
the install directory path in
[[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1403366|Bug 1403366]].
Instead of relying on argv[0], they now follow `/proc/self/exe` on Linux
systems (they changed how they handle this on other platforms, too).
I'm not sure if we should revert part of the patch.
