 > It is not integrated in the build process. You need to copy the xpi to
 the distribution
 directory(mobile/android/torbrowser/assets/distribution/extensions).

 For this
  1. export TB_BUILD_WITH_DISTRIBUTION=1 (or set this env variable however
 you like) so the distribution is included by .mozconfig-android
  2. create `mobile/android/torbrowser/assets/distribution/extensions`, as
 igt0 said, if that directory structure doesn't already exist, and copy the
 xpi into the extensions directory.
