Marco Bonardo e8fd1b7c50 Bug 1398567 - Invert URIFixup default behavior to search unless the string looks like a URI. r=Gijs
With recent fixes that can properly identify whitelisted domains, whitelisted
domain suffixed, valid known public suffixes, and forcing to visit URI-like
strings that end with a slash, it's time to re-evaluate the URIFixup behavior.
Until now URIFixup considered everything a URI unless it had specific search
characteristics, this patch inverts that behavior.
The scope of this change is to improve the urlbar behavior as the main Search
Access Point, since that's the direction we're moving towards.

This lands with a temporary hidden feature pref browser.fixup.defaultToSearch,
that will be removed once the feature has been released.
