Changes (by mcs):

 * keywords:  tbb-7.0-must-alpha, TorBrowserTeam201704R => tbb-7.0-must-
     alpha, TorBrowserTeam201704
 * status:  needs_review => needs_revision


Comment:

 The backout is somewhat messy. Are you sure we are not going to want this
 feature again someday? It would be much easier to just change
 `shouldPromptForLocale()` to always return false.

 Looking at your changes, they look okay with the following small comments:
 * The check against `mRestartWithQuit` can be removed from tl-process.js
 (nothing sets that property).
 * Kathy and I would prefer to keep the following prefs near the top of
 defaults/preferences/prefs.js so as to avoid confusion (since they are not
 related to the control port prefs): `extensions.torlauncher.start_tor` and
 `extensions.torlauncher.prompt_at_startup`
