Description
It would be great if rr could be used to debug Firefox for Android (or other Android applications).
Since Android can run on an x86 device or emulator, hopefully this is easier to do than supporting ARM.

Research direction
Start by reviewing rr's existing platform support and the assumptions that limit it to current Linux targets, then compare those requirements with x86 Android devices and emulators. Done means rr can record and replay Firefox for Android or another Android application on x86, with validation on a supported x86 Android environment.
