Description

The link for "Tips for making builds faster." in Make Your Build Faster section refers to the Get Started section. This section doesn't talk about tips to build TB faster.
At least, the page Tips and Tricks is more appropriate than Get Started page, even if there is no information about building TB faster.

On Mozilla developer website, Tips for making builds faster refers to Making builds faster.

By replacing the link https://developer.thunderbird.net/thunderbird-development/getting-started by https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Mozilla_build_FAQ#making_builds_faster for Tips for making builds faster in Make Your Build Faster, it can be more understandable.
