 In TorBroswer 7.0a4, when leaving a .onion page for a clearnet page, the
 .onion address is sent as referrer.

 This should not be the case and has originally been disabled with
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor-browser.git/commit/?h=tor-
 browser-45.8.0esr-6.5-2&id=09188cb14dfaa8ac22f687c978166c7bd171b576 this
 commit] and appears to have been
 [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1305144 uplifted to Firefox]
 since. The `network.http.referer.hideOnionSource` preference is set to
 `true` but seems to have no effect.

 Steps to reproduce:
 1. Go to [https://3g2upl4pq6kufc4m.onion/ duckduckgo's onion page]
 2. enter any search term
 3. click on one of the result
 4. open the inspector observe the .onion referrer being send to the target
 page
