Comment (by acat):

 Yes, by not initializing `ActivityStream` in `AboutNewTab.jsm` this should
 be disabled. The UI part seems to be implemented in `ToolbarPanelHub.jsm`
 and ` ToolbarBadgeHub.jsm`, and that's only initialized in `ASRouter.jsm`,
 which will never run with our patch.

 Not directly related, I noticed that `ToolbarPanelHub` has one usage
 outside `newtab`: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-
 beta/rev/a559a3f66b0f33306ba2ef4154660f475ae70957/browser/base/content
 /browser-siteProtections.js#1556, which adds a message to the `Protections
 Panel` but that seems unrelated to the `Whats New` panel, and should not
 affects us for now, as I think we are not planning to show the protections
 panel.
