    data: Swap default for 'disable-extension-version-check' setting
    
    Nowadays, the user interface has mostly stabilized with most changes
    happening under the hood. As a result, extensions written for previous
    versions of GNOME Shell are very much expected to keep working on
    updates, if it wasn't for the version check that requires a version
    bump in the extension metadata. There has been a setting to disable
    that check for a while, but it's existence isn't widely known (hence
    the common perception that "everything breaks on updates"). While
    there is still some risk that an out-of-date extension can be enabled
    without error, but fails spectacularly later (where we cannot catch
    the exception), it is reasonably small by now when compared to the
    ~95% of extensions that can be "unbroken", so swap the default value
    to disable version checks by default.
