> Default to not switching to new tabs

I am not convinced just changing the default for this flag is the proper fix
for the issue, unless its behavior has changed since last time I tried it.

I have found this behavior of links opening in new tabs activating that tab
annoying as well, so I tried to run with "switchToNewTab=false" for a while. I
have given up on it because I actually found it MORE annoying. The issue is
that this also applies not only to tabs opened from links, but also to tabs
that I open explicitly from the Angelfish menus. And those tabs, I most
definitely DO want to switch to, because that is what I opened them for. So
with "switchToNewTab=false", I have to then do 2 extra touches to actually
switch to the tab I just opened before entering the URL in it.

So what I would like to see as the default, or at least as an option, is a mode
where switching to new tabs is disabled for tabs opened from links (either
because the website says so or because I picked "Open in new tab"), but enabled
for tabs opened explicitly through the "new tab" button in the Angelfish UI.
