Added toggle (default to disabled) to remove pinned and sponsored results from the URL bar.

See: #6186

Demo:

(Video has broken text since it's missing l10n stuff)

If you want pinned shortcuts to be enabled by default (in case people complains more stuff missing from URL bar)
I can change it.

I woudnt want it to be in the settings page to not overcrowd it, I think

Hmm, alright. I guess I'll remove it from the options list

Removed the options, people still can use zen.urlbar.show-sponsored and zen.urlbar.show-pinned from about:config to configure this.

Awesome, hope this ensures Google Search, which is currently pinned on installation (any plans to change this too?), will no longer show in the URL bar by default, as this has been annoying for many.
