    Bug 40318: Remove check for DISPLAY env var in start-tor-browser
    
    When using Wayland, the DISPLAY environment variable does not need to be
    set, so the start-tor-browser script should not fail in that case.
    
    Wayland support is still disabled by default in Firefox, and users who
    want to enable it will need to set the MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND environment
    variable.
