Under the Shutdown tab in Security, there's an option for whether to
reload tabs with Tor or without it after a crash.

I've found through experience, that - oddly enough - this also controls
the startup state of Torbutton: Put it on Tor, and it starts with Tor
even without crashing; put it on Non-Tor, and it starts without it.
