See branch: feature/just_hide_iceweasel_add-on_bar

I threw it together in a couple of minutes, so I won't be sad if you
don't want to merge it. If you like it, consider it as a candidate for
Tails 0.16.

I'm not completely sure of whether it adds additional maintenance
burden, but I don't think it will as long as we don't care too much
about what's going on in the add-on bar. If we at some point do care
about it, I think we'll want to undo this branch any way, and show the
add-on bar by default again.

BTW, I have merged your feature/hide-iceweasel-modules-bar branch now.

Cheers!
