    Remove ad-hoc query parameter stripping
    
    This old, manual, and very non-comprehensive method of tracking
    prevention doesn't make much sense to do now that we have far more
    sophisticated anti-tracking measures in WebKit and enabled by default
    that don't require listing ad-hoc query parameters to remove from URLs.
