Description
As explained in #153 I am getting started in thunderbird development.
I am on mozilla-beta / comm-beta build starts but fails at
error: no member named 'TB_MAILS_READ' in 'mozilla::Telemetry::ScalarID'
accompanied with some further errors in 'mozilla::Telemetry'
Full log: https://pastebin.com/XiDGhqh1
No sourcecode changes, not custom configs. What do I need for a successful build?

Start with issue #153 and the linked build log, then review the reported mozilla-beta/comm-beta failure around the missing TB_MAILS_READ scalar and related Telemetry errors. Determine the fresh-environment requirements or documentation gap, and update the contributor guidance so a clean build can be completed without custom source changes or configuration.
