Steps to reproduce:
1. Go to Firefox preferences
2. under Privacy & Security, click on Clear History
3. Choose time range to clear: everything
4. Check "Offline Website Data"
5. click clear now.
6. check localStorage for WebExtension based extensions and notice its cleared as well.
It is even more of a problem if clear upon exit is on. (privacy.sanitize.sanitizeOnShutdown)
Actual results:
It cleared localStorage for WebExtension too, not only websites.
Expected results:
Only clear localStorage of websites and keep localStorage of extensions.
