Change Description

Remove startup.homepage_override_url from Base Browser, and set it in the branding commit, since it's where Firefox customizes these URLs.

While I was at it, I've raised the polling rate of updates: alpha was only 2 hours, definitely too low, so I raised it to 12 hours, to match release (since we have the same update frequency).
