Description

Currently to update mbgl one would need to:

- Package two new mbgl packages:
- Release build (like https://github.com/mapbox/mason/pull/651)
- Debug+ASAN build (like https://github.com/mapbox/mason/pull/652)
- Update the mbgl version in `mason-versions.ini`

This should be:

- [ ] documented in the readme
- [ ] and @springmeyer should spirit guide another developer through this process to ensure it is robust and we have redundency
