 For #31286 we committed new strings such as
 {{{
 <!ENTITY torPreferences.viewLogs "View Logs&#x2026;">
 }}}
 When pulling the translated strings that suddenly mutated to
 {{{
 <!ENTITY torPreferences.viewLogs "View Logs&#x2026;">
 }}}
 We should figure out a way where the `&` actually gets preserved because
 otherwise users are seeing the second string literally.

 This bug might be responsible for XML parsing errors too, which I am
 seeing in the browser console.
