Comment:

 Uses https://check.torproject.org/RecommendedTBBVersions as the version
 list. If this url is 404, the feature is disabled. Otherwise, we check to
 see if the current value of torbrowser.version is present in the returned
 JSON list. If so, we fetch the normal check homepage. Otherwise, we fetch
 the upgrade notice.

 Will update #2285 for more detailed instructions for check.
