fixup! Base Browser strings

fixup! Bug 40925: Implemented the Security Level component

TB 43782: Update security level UI for new UX flow.

In addition, we drop the distinction between the security levels in the
UI when the user has a custom security level.

I.e. we always show shield as unfilled but with a yellow dot in the
toolbar, and we just call it "Custom" rather than "Standard Custom",
etc.

 +# Text for a badge that labels the currently active security level.
 +# The text in between '<span>' and '</span>' should contain some kind of bracket, like '(' and ')', or other punctuation used in your language to separate out text from its surrounding context. This will not be visible, but will be use for screen readers to make it clear that the text is not part of the same sentence. For example, in US English this would be read as "(Current level)", and the full line of text would be read as "Safest (Current level)".
