1. The default TRR pref says "wait for captive portal" but the code didn't actually verify that the message said "clear" - just that it was a message. It made the code reset TRR confirmation state (again) when the CP event finally arrives, possibly causing one or two resolves (in TRR-first mode) to instead use the native resolver. This could be seen in session restore cases with many tabs.

2. The captive portal event would reset the confirmation state even when it was already confirmed, as in when the pref was set to not wait for captive portal.

The downside with fixing this to actually wait for the CP confirmation is that we delay the first TRR resolve a bit compared to what it is now...

I'm not a big fan of the 7 levels of indentation, but it's fine for now :)
