gnu: ungoogled-chromium: Enable all release optimizations.

* gnu/packages/chromium.scm (ungoogled-chromium-snippet): Add substitution to
allow using unbundled dependencies in "official" builds.
(lld-as-ld, lld-wrapper, lld/wrapped): New variables.
(ungoogled-chromium)[arguments]: Add "is_official_build" to #:configure-flags.
Remove redundant or unnecessary flags, disable system protobuf.  Use llvm-ar
and llvm-nm instead of their binutils equivalents.
[native-inputs]: Add LLD/WRAPPED.
[inputs]: Remove PROTOBUF.
