Remove "permission-less" status at install time
Related issue:
https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBOL-home/issues/326

uBOL now asks broad host permissions by default. Users can still
choose narrow host permissions by using their browser's controls
for this.

For instance in Chromium, those host permissions controls are found
in the "Site access" section in the detailed view of an extension.

One can set "Site access" to "On click" to revoke broad host
permissions, and grant host permissions to only specific site.

In such mode, uBOL will still block through the DNR API, but no
cosmetic or scriptlet filtering will occurs, as these requires
permission to "read and change data" on websites for which higher
filtering mode is desired.

Some browsers do not automatically grant broad host permissions
even when an extension asks for broad permissions at install time,
and going forward all browsers will likely adopt this approach, and
thus it no longer made sense for uBOL to default to no broad hosts
permissions at install time, especially given this leads to issues
with no solution -- issues solved with the new approach (e.g. like
the ability to deploy uBOL in Optimal mode by default).
