 I wonder if we can help that issue by reading in the prefs way earlier and
 just adjust the UI once we open the bridge selection view. I think it's
 fair game to assume users would very likely want to select a bridge once
 they tap the gear icon. Thus, we could read the prefs in on the first
 preferences related view while users are thinking about whether they want
 to activate bridges or not. However, I think it's even more
 straightforward to just read them in when Tor Browser starts, especially
 with the idea that we might want to kind of automate the connection anyway
 in some near future. That way only the UI needs to get drawn which should
 go considerably faster and might avoid the crash.
