 We should use Unix domain sockets by default in Tor Browser. The patch for
 #14272 takes care of doing that for the control port (via the
 extensions.torlauncher.control_port_use_socket = true default preference).
 For the SOCKS port we need additional changes in tor-browser and builders
 /tor-browser-bundle at least.
