1898659 - Remove network.cors_preflight.block_userpass_uri pref

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Networking, task, P3)

Description

[Gregory Pappas [:gregp]]

If true nsCORSListenerProxy will reject any URL that contains user & password regardless if it's a redirect or not. When false nsCORSListenerProxy will only reject URLs with a username and password when they happen on a redirected channel.

It was introduced about a year ago in bug 1738251. Should be safe to remove now

Relanded this as another bug was the culprit.
