The change in 0633949f1000 was buggy. If a new Addon instance were
created, it would always return the value stored in the database. This
meant that if you set userDisabled = false and called getAddonByID(),
userDisabled would likely be reported as true.

Experiment add-ons are now disabled by default on application load. It
is up to the Experiments Manager to enable them.
This means that experiments may not be able to reliably collect data or
modify behavior close to application startup. (There is a window between
when the Addon Manager initializes and when the Experiments Manager
initializes.) This window is acceptable for the initial version of the
experiments feature.
The Experiments Manager doesn't currently enable experiments on startup.
This will be addressed in a subsequent patch. Its tests do not regress
(indicating a lack of test coverage), so no harm no foul.

Experiment add-ons are installed and updated via the Experiments Manager
service. With this change, the Add-ons Manager lets experiment add-ons
play by their own rules without interference.

A new type of add-on is introduced: experiments.
Experiments are add-ons that conduct data experiments. They are deployed
to compatible clients and collect additional information about the
client.
