snippets providers

`browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.asrouter.providers.snippets`

These (which landed in FF64 with snippets above) are not in the user.js, so why bother with the snippet one
- `browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.asrouter.providers.cfr`
- `browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.asrouter.providers.onboarding`

also these aren't in the user.js
- `browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.asrouter.providers.cfr-fxa`
- `browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.asrouter.providers.message-groups`
- `browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.asrouter.providers.messaging-experiments`
- `browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.asrouter.providers.whats-new-panel`

There are no privacy concerns here. At the end of the day, what Firefox connects to and sends is E2EE and only used locally in non-web content: and you have other prefs and a UI to disable them from being displayed
