We're enabling query param stripping for private browsing mode too if users have ETP strict enabled in Bug 1778457.

There's a r+ patch which didn't land and no activity in this bug for 2 weeks.
:pbz, could you have a look please?
If you still have some work to do, you can add an action "Plan Changes" in Phabricator.
