None of that is actually needed, since you just can symlink the
directory into the Firefox and Chromium extension directories:
sudo cp -a extension/ /usr/share/webext/plasma
sudo ln -s /usr/share/webext/plasma /usr/share/mozilla/extensions/{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}/$(jq -r .applications.gecko.id < extension/manifest.json)
sudo ln -s /usr/share/webext/plasma /usr/share/chromium/extensions/plasma
I have tested that this works on Debian firefox/firefox-esr/chromium.
