Comment:

 In #9486 we started to use NoScript functionality to get rid of temporary
 permissions during New Identity. We need to adapt that mechanism to cope
 with the new NoScript reality.

 (And we might want to clean up `torbutton.js` while we are at it: there is
 no need for code related to the XPCOM version of NoScript anymore)
