`app.update.enabled` should remove updater UI elements when set to false.

I have a use case that requires setting app.update.enabled to false.

This mostly works as I expect, however the UI element for forcing a manual update check in the Help->About Tor Browser dialog still remains visible and functional. If the updater is disabled, the UI elements associated with it should be hidden.

On a side note, it would be nice if the built in updater could be force disabled at launch time via an env var as well, for those most special of snowflakes.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
