Auto-Sort Bookmarks update requires new permissions #88

Hi,

I use Auto-Sort Bookmarks version 3.3 in Firefox v64.0.2. Great add-in! Thanks for all the effort. But now, I get a warning when a new update is available for installation: 'It requires your permission to: download files and read an modify the browser's download history.' Why does the add-in require these permissions?

Regards, Arman

I have a wiki page that explains the permissions used: https://github.com/eric-bixby/auto-sort-bookmarks-webext/wiki/Permissions

Version 3.3.2 needed the "download" permission so that translations could be saved to a file.
