- rewrote spec file to account for SeaMonkey's new build system, including
a new Makefile from Dmitry Butskoy: #1181525#c3
- merged the translations-common and translations-other subpackages into
the main package; it is no longer convenient/consistent to keep these
separate because localizations for the integrated IRC and Calendar
clients are already merged in the source. This also solves #1181525.
- enabled and bundled Calendar (Lightning) extension
- cleaned up spec file to remove conditions targeting long-obsolete
openSUSE versions
- disabled elf-hack on i586 builds, as it was preventing compilation

- add patch to enable builds with Rust >= 1.48 on Tumbleweed
