 It seems that the reinstall of mozilla.cfg is happening on every launch
 instead of the first launch after upgrading. This manifests itself as the
 security slider being reset to High on every launch because this is the
 only user-visible change.

 I believe that the logic on line 502 of internal/ui/config/config.go is
 incorrect and that the Compare function from the strings package should be
 used instead, but I have not yet tested this change.
