We are migrating Chrome extension users over onto the manifest
v3 (MV3) build, in time for the June deadline[1]. Once that's
finished, only Firefox users will remain on the MV2 build. Let's
rename the build, release, and test scripts and related documentation
to reflect that change.
Note: We unfortunately can't remove the chrome-mv2 build target
entirely, since Playwright does not yet support testing Firefox
extensions[2]. To test the MV2 code via the integration tests,
using the chrome-mv2 build is the best we can do for now.
