I've thought a bit more about it. I think it's worthwhile creating an own
project for geckoview, at least for two reasons:
1) It's conceptually easier as we don't build an app anymore, let alone
firefox. We just build the .aar we then need in other projects
2) I expect having an own project will help us in the time when we run
desktop ESR and regular release for mobile. It can get easily complex when
dealing with different nightly branches and release branches in a single
project. And putting different logic into one build script to handle
different artifact types adds to that complexity, too.
I feel a bit more boilerplate by having separate projects is a trade-off
worth doing.
