Well, I changed my mind.  It is a bit funny to have both firefox and
iceweasel as "valid-tool", but if we consider $browser to define the
external interface and $browser_path to define the implementation, it
sort of makes sense to have that configuration.  browser_path could be
iceweasel for browser firefox.

I'll squash the patch to update the one from the last round (as the last
two patches are not yet accepted in 'next' yet), remove the html
documentation path fallback, but will leave this part in.

browser.*.path and web.browser configuration need to be documented, if
not already, though.
