Attachment: Bug 1706607 - Add prefs for the URL query string stripping. r?dimi

We add two prefs in this patch, including
'privacy.query_stripping.enabled' and
'privacy.query_stripping.strip_list'.

The pref 'privacy.query_stripping.enabled' is the general controller of
the URL query string stripping. And the pref
'privacy.query_stripping.strip_list' is the list of the query strings
that should be stripped from the URL.

Since the default value for 'privacy.query_stripping.strip_list' is empty, does this mean that this feature is "disabled" (noop) even if 'privacy.query_stripping.enabled' is set to true?

The pref value of privacy.query_stripping.strip_list is used for customizing the list and the testing purpose. The actual list is populated via the Remote Settings server.
