As you said, this is not specific to B2G, but this is how AOSP works.
You should check their documentation :)

B2G specific magic might happen in gonk-misc/ and/or in the patched
build/ repo we have.

Gecko installation is controlled by gonk-misc/Android.mk, gaia
installation with gaia/Android.mk, and for Gonk you need to be more
specifc about what you want, but basically this is very close to AOSP.
