martin f. krafft d08a1b468f Remove unnecessary chdir calls 
The `prefsCleaner.sh` script chdir()'s to the script's directory on
execution, which isn't necessary at all, and also means that has to
reside within the Firefox profile directory, rather than being callable
directly from the Git clone.

`updater.sh` has the same "problem", but honours the `-p` switch to let
the working directory be overridden.

This patch removes the unnecessary code, such that the `prefsCleaner.sh`
script works on `./user.js`.

🟪 user.js

A user.js is a configuration file that can control Firefox settings - for a more technical breakdown and explanation, you can read more in the wiki

🟩 the arkenfox user.js

License: MIT

The arkenfox user.js is a template which aims to provide as much privacy and enhanced security as possible, and to reduce tracking and fingerprinting as much as possible - while minimizing any loss of functionality and breakage (but it will happen).

Everyone, experts included, should at least read the wiki, as it contains important information regarding a few user.js settings.

Note that we do not recommend connecting over Tor on Firefox. Use the Tor Browser if your threat model calls for it, or for accessing hidden services.

Also be aware that the arkenfox user.js is made specifically for desktop Firefox. Using it as-is in other Gecko-based browsers can be counterproductive, especially in the Tor Browser.
