That's great news! Many thanks to Nick and all the other folks who've
worked so hard to make our Android developer experience great.

[ann] `mach build` now includes `mach package` for Android

[Nicholas Alexander]

Hi folks!

tl;dr: you don't need to run `mach package` for Android (GeckoView) any
more.

Bug 1550146  has
landed and stuck.  That ticket integrates producing the omnijar required
for Android into the build; and produces All The Things for Android work
during a `mach build`:
- GeckoView AAR
- GeckoView example APK
- test APKs

You shouldn't need to run `mach package` yourself any more.  And hopefully
there's less confusion about when things happen in the (Android) build
system!

If you need to produce a Fennec APK... that still requires `mach package`.

As always, thanks to reviewers and testers: Mike Hommey, Chris Manchester,
Agi Sferro, and James Willcox.

Best,
Nick
