Though Firefox shares a lot of WebExtensions code with Chromium,
these platforms have their own specific code paths, for various
reasons.
The reorganization here makes it clear that Chromium platform is
just one flavor of WebExtensions, and as such all Chromium-specific
code paths should no longer be automatically pulled by other
platforms where these code paths are not needed.

The managed `userSettings` entry is an array of entries,
where each entry is a name/value pair encoded into an array
of strings.
The first item in the entry array is the name of a setting,
and the second item is the stringified value for the
setting.
This is a more convenient way for administrators to set
specific user settings. The settings set through
`userSettings` policy will always be set at uBO launch
time.
The new entry is an array of strings, each representing a
distinct line, and all entries are used to populate the
"My filters" pane.
This offers an more straightforward way for administrators
to specify a list of custom filters to use for all
installations.
The entry `toOverwrite.filterLists` is an array of
string, where each string is a token identifying a
stock filter list, or a URL for an external filter
list.
This new entry is to make it easier for an
administrator to centrally configure uBO with a
custom set of filter lists.

The new "extraTrustedSiteDirectives" policy is an array
of strings, each of which is parsed as a trusted-site
directive to append to a user's own set of trusted-site
directives at launch time.
The added trusted-site directives will be considered as
part of the default set of directives by uBO.
