tweak 2522: webgl

- we already disable webgl, that's enough
- the other two prefs are not going to provide much protection if a user decides they want webgl
- "disable-fail-if-major-performance-caveat" only applies to ESR78 and will removed in the future
- one (or two) less pref(2) for users to troubleshoot/flip
