  fixup! Firefox preference overrides.
  
  BB 44062: Enable touch events on Windows and Android.
  
  Auto-detection makes some properties available on the global scope only
  when touch support is actually available, but this introduces entorpy.
  Let's force touch enabled in Windows+Android and disable it elsewhere.
  This improves consistency with the spoofed number of touch points.
