    Bug 19417: Disable asmjs for now
    
    We are exempting `javascript.options.asmjs` from the Security Slider for
    now and set it to `false` by default (which is done by a separate
    Tor Browser patch).
    
    This is a stopgap until at least the linkability concerns in #19417 are
    addressed.
