    Bug 26039: FIXUP <profiledir>/preferences/extension-overrides.js will not be loaded in ESR 60
    
    Fixup for 26039.  WebExtension extensions can't read/write prefs, so the
    base contents of extension-overrides.js are completely unnecessary.  The
    WebExtension versions of noscript and httpseverywhere seem to be nearly
    complete re-writes (noscript in particular is much simpler) so our
    custom options appear to be no longer required (though a complete audit
    of noscript should probably be done just to be sure we don't need to fix
    any bad behaviour).
    
    The updated build script for tor-browser now dumps all of the
    build-determined prefs (pluggable transport strings, localization
    options) into a generated-prefs.js file created at build time, which is
    then appended to 000-tor-browser.js as before.
    
    The pdfjs option is no longer needed since the disableRange option seems
    to break pdfjs altogether in latest ESR60.  Also, setting the user pref
    in 000-tor-browser.js does not work since pdfjs overwrites it with its
    own value (any future patch setting pdfjs options needs to modify the
    default values table)
