Comment:

 I have a branch for review at:

 browser.git/commit/?h=bug31660_02&id=d8ff33095d73cf7c839c894fcb14ba923b38b957

 https://people.torproject.org/~sysrqb/bug34321/TorBrowser-testbuild-
 osx64_en-US_01.dmg

 I'm not very happy about my choice of strings.

 Based on brade and mcs' suggestions in comments [ticket:31660#comment:24
 24], [ticket:31660#comment:25 25], and [ticket:31660#comment:26 26], the
 Onboarding experience behavior is now different between new installations
 and upgrades. After upgrading, a user should see the Onboarding bubble
 ("See what's new in Tor Browser") and when that is clicked the "Release
 Notes" webpage should open in a separate tab. At the same time, the
 Onboarding tour is marked as completed and the bubble is hidden on
 `about:tor`. The onboarding overlay is never shown to the user.

 With a new installation, the user sees the current onboarding overlay with
 the addition of a "Learn More" tab. The major changes in this situation
 are when the user clicks the "Done" button on the Onion Services tour and
 when the user directly clicks on the "Learn More" tab. In both of these
 cases the "Release Notes" page is opened in a separate tab, the "Learn
 More" item is marked as completed, and the overlay is hidden.

 Continuing to use "Done" as the string on Onion Services button is
 possibly confusing, but the behavior is nearly the same as before.
