Subject: [ISSUE] Document the "no firefox fork package" policy

New issue by vincele on void-packages repository
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/44281
Description:
I was searching for librewolf to try it, and after a while found the bunch of closed / won't fix issues.
After reading a few of them and seeing the irritation they seem to cause, I then searched into the FAQ to see if this fact is documented in there and did not find anything.
I think this policy (looks like it's not only for firefox) could be documented somewhere, to help alleviate the duplicated issues and questions. And the invitation to use flatpacks instead, could also be explained at the same place.
FYI: I tried the nix package manager on top of void, and its librewolf is usable. Too bad the nix void package is not working on musl x86_64 void (see #37382).
Did I miss something ?
