📄 Description

Debian packages can distribute browser extensions in /usr/share/webext.
The directory is already allowed in Firefox (and related) profiles, but not yet for chromium.

For now I have added it to the chromium.profile, as this profile also contains whitelists another extension directory (/usr/share/mozilla/extensions), but maybe it would make sense to move both to chromium-common.profile?
