We need this to be something we can turn on and off, and can land in nightly 66 without breaking any existing functionality.

It needs designs still, but I can attach wire frames.

Testing instructions:


    

  1. Ensure the new tab is the regular version by default.
    2. 

  2. In about:config, change  browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.discoverystream.config to be {"enabled":true,"layout_endpoint":"https://gist.githubusercontent.com/ScottDowne/5ddadf1e238aaae1ad1bfcaf32f37530/raw/1fea64bff7615d3593b923f1794a14e18e83dc08/topics-layout"}
    3. 

  3. Ensure new tab is rendering something different than default, in this case, three "more recommendations" links.
    4. 

  4. Reset the pref, ensure everything is back to normal.
    5.
