I have long been hoping for this functionality to be optional in Firefox.
This is my first ever bugfix.

Here's an explanation of the feature:
When the user searches using the standard Firefox search bar, the results should
open in a new tab when browser.tabs.opentabfor.searchbar is set to true.

A further enhancement may be to only create a tab if the currently viewed tab is
not a newly created one, labelled "(Untitled)".
