This preference is basically unused and also redundant with the opt-in host list. As such any trace should be removed.

As mentioned in Bug 1722090, we might also want to remove the ability to start the RemoteAgent on anything but localhost for now and remove the related browser chrome mochitests which exercise this feature.

Updating the summary based on the steps that need to be done here.
