Hi liuche, hi others,

I will try to unify this with the "Develop Fennec with IDEs" page, which is
due a refresh.

I have had some feedback that folks (especially folks *inside* Mozilla)
expect this documentation to be on MDN.  Do people have strong opinions
about Wiki vs MDN?  Frankly, I am thrilled that we have a *functional* Wiki
community (good content, lots of maintainers) -- and don't want to damage
that culture.

Best,
Nick
