When the browser launches, the urlbar is always focused, instead of the homepage. This behavior doesn't happen on Firefox and doesn't work for users that have a homepage with a searchbar.
This PR uses a toggle to disable the focusing of the urlbar: zen.urlbar.disable-initial-focus
The default value is false so it doesn't change anything for existing users.
There was already an PR without an toggle: #1742
Also an issue: #973
And a discussion: #1169
I'm not really familiar with the codebase and would appreciate feedback :)
