 There are a few menu items in the UI that let the user open a new window.
 They have inconsistent names:

 File menu: "New Tab" (Ctrl + T), "New Private Window" (Ctrl + N)
 Hamburger menu: "New Window" (Ctrl + N)
 Context menu on links: "Open Link in New Tab", "Open Link in New Private
 Window"

 We should make these names consistent, I think. Should it be "New Tab" and
 "New Window" or "New Private Tab" and "New Private Window"? All tabs and
 windows in Tor Browser are supposed to be private. :)
