Windows shortcut in Start Menu for Thunderbird Safe Mode is not working. It's
using command line key "-no-extensions", but should use command line key
"-safe-mode" (as in Firefox)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to Start - Programs - Mozilla Thunderbird
2.Open Mozilla Thunderbird (No Extensions) shortcut.
3.

Actual Results:  
Thunderbird window is opened. All extensions are enabled.

Expected Results:  
Thunderbird window is opened. All extensions are disabled.
This was introduced in bug 225641 and has always been wrong, as far as I can tell.
