Sync default should be OFF and fix sync enabling dialogs during install #166

What steps will reproduce the problem?

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.

The last few versions (including 1.0.6.12) have wiped out my whitelist (no, the 
option to restore a whitelist from a backup does not work).  I have had to 
reinstall the extension to get usable settings.  Syncing should be "off" so 
that installing a new version does not push up default settings to my google 
account wiping out the settings stored there.

In addition, the sync enabling dialog wording and button names are extremely 
confusing.  If you want the user to specify whether syncing is enabled or not, 
don't make the button choices OK and Cancel.  The buttons should be Yes or No.

My apologies for the inconvenience caused; the issue has been resolved in 
v1.0.6.12 where it will not clear your synced settings upon install.

In the next update, v1.0.6.13, syncing will be disabled by default, but you 
will still be prompted to import your settings if it detects you have synced 
settings on your Google Account. I've, however, tweaked the messaging to be 
clearer (e.g. "Click on 'OK' if you want to continue."). The confirm() function 
does not allow me to customize the labelling of the buttons, unfortunately!

Again, I apologise for the inconvenience caused.

Working much better.  I still prefer that button names reflect the action the 
user is being asked to perform.  Perhaps say: Click on 'OK' to sync now.  Click 
on 'Cancel" to disable syncing.

It'd be more work, but couldn't you build your own dialog box for the enable 
syncing install option (which *would* let you customize the button text)?
