firefox: allow RDD sandbox access to gpu drivers
Firefox uses a sandboxing model that only allows access to paths that were previously explicitly granted. We can only add granular permissions to a specific sandbox by patching, because setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH would affect all of them. To use hardware decoding via VA-API with Firefox 98.0.2 one needs to head to `about:config` and enable `media.ffmpeg.vaapi.enabled`. Closes: #157061
