Change mozilla-kde.patch to follow the GNOME registry behavior for new MIME types to avoid opening downloaded files without any inquiries (bsc#1197319)
In Firefox 98.0, improvements to the download panel have been made to just download files instead of asking the user what to do with them. Unfortunately this causes some unwanted behavior inside nsKDERegistry as its unconditional call to the function
mimeInfo->SetPreferredAction(nsIMIMEInfo::useSystemDefault);
results in the browser opening many file types after download without any inquiries.
By replacing this unconditional call with the conditional one found in nsGNOMERegistry as of 98.0, this issue can be avoided:
3b6a1dc7fb/uriloader/exthandler/unix/nsGNOMERegistry.cpp (L98)
If you have any suggestions for improvement, please let me know!

- disable ccache, this adds about 1 minute of build time and
over 2 GB of disk space usage without benefit on OBS builds
- build with rust-simd like upstream does
- use -g1 for debuginfo generation as this is what upstream
does as well and it saves ~ 2GB of writes
- use %limit on x86_64 to scale down to less capable workers
- disable install stripping so that debuginfo is useful
- use autopatch
- cleanup constraints to specify only jobs, physicalmemory
and memoryperjob to be more flexible on which host to build
on
