Bug 1570644 - Part 4: Disable LSNG in 69; r=asuth

Beta/Release Uplift Approval Request

• User impact if declined: If LSNG is enabled, quota manager storage initialization time is increased by ~30%
  We don't want to ship LSNG until this regression is fixed.
• Is this code covered by automated tests?: No
• Has the fix been verified in Nightly?: No
• Needs manual test from QE?: No
• If yes, steps to reproduce:
• List of other uplifts needed: None
• Risk to taking this patch: Low
• Why is the change risky/not risky? (and alternatives if risky): This patch just disables LSNG, so the old implementation of LocalStorage will be used in FF 69. We fully support downgrading of LocalStorage data, so if some users already tried a beta build, they should be safe. We actually disabled LSNG in previous beta cycles and there were no problems reported after the switch.
• String changes made/needed: None

Backed out for various localstorage related failures, e.g. in dom/tests/browser/browser_localStorage_e10s.js:

Marking this uplift as a blocker as we don't want to ship without it in 69.

I'm verifying a patch here:

There's still some work and this will require a new review, should be ready soon.

Part 1, 2, 3 need to get r+ and land on m-c first.

To be clear, only the support patches landed on m-c for Fx70. The actual disabling of LSNG only landed on Beta. Updating the flags to better reflect that.
