 Selfsupport already landed in ESR 38 but was disabled there, I guess due
 to disabling the health report (see:
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1111022 for the background).
 This is not the case anymore with an ESR45-based Tor Browser for some
 reason. We should make sure it is disabled there, too.

Comment:

 In ESR45 disabling the health report is not enough anymore. At least the
 unified telemetry stuff needs to get disabled as well now
 (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1179226).

 The big plan is:
 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IGpzsYGi_sq3YFQDAPyKOkU_BKvXAC95fZYA2i4ceVs/edit?pref=2&pli=1

 We should do that and take the direct approach, too, setting
 `browser.selfsupport.enabled` to `false`.
