Future Maintaining Thunderbird

As I see from source this is just repackaged binaries from official mozilla tarball similarly to what mozilla does with firefox snap. That also means it comes with it own “updater” which will prompt users about fake update like Firefox auto update prompt .

Honestly I don’t think this is the quality we want from snaps. If you don’t want to build from source then at least repackage prebuild deb from mozilla-ppa bionic repo.
