I really wanted it to substitute the html5 player, or at least the direct
player for mp4/webm files in firefox, but I couldn't make it work. The
formats recognized by the firefox internal player were used in all cases. The
plugin worked for formats unknown by firefox.

Nevertheless, as I wrote the nix recipe, I commit it. It may be of interest to
someone else.
I'm not certain about this, so I'm trying for firefox only.
Rationale: it might be confusing to see two firefox-${version} instances
in logs or paths, so I wanted to differentiate them.
- I chose to keep `browser-unwrapped` attributes so that it's much
easier to override parameters for the browser (through `packageOverrides`).
- Aliases `browserWrapper` are retained for now, as usual.
- I don't think that amount of code belonged into all-packages.nix.
- Now the default name of the wrapped package is identical
with the command that runs the browser.
- Other defaults were changed according to how the wrapper is
(almost always) used.
- `meta` is improved: mostly inherited with priority above
the unwrapped package.
The patch only applies for Firefox versions between 37.0 and 40.1.
Because we're on version 41.0 the changes are already included upstream
and thus the patch doesn't apply and is even unnecessary.
As for version 38.3 for ESR, the patch doesn't apply as well if compiled
with enableGTK3. Of course, this is a bit unfortunate but I don't have
the time right now to properly rebase the patch on 38.3.

This seems to have been confusing people, using both xlibs and xorg, etc.
- Avoided renaming local (and different) xlibs binding in gcc*.
- Fixed cases where both xorg and xlibs were used.
Hopefully everything still works as before.
