#908450 webext-bulk-media-downloader: reports extension installation and version to add0n.com from new profiles

When I start Firefox with a new profile, the extension opens a tab that
submits an unencrypted HTTP GET request to add0n.com with the add-on
name and version number, example URL below. This is a privacy issue
unless the user also uses the -offline option when starting Firefox.
The correct solution is either to ship the information to be conveyed
to the user with the package itself (like Privacy Badger does) or to
ask the user if they would like to load the remote page (only for
information that must be updated separately to the package). Looking at
the source code, it also loads the add0n.com website when the add-on is
upgraded or removed (URLs below).

$ firefox -profile $(mktemp -d tmp-firefox-profile-XXXXXXXXXX)
