localStorage cleanup for users #2964

This is what I have in my Firefox Nightly for developer.mozilla.org:

I'm pretty sure that the only things that matter these days are:

login-service
banner.common_survey_banner.embargoed_until

Everything else is "garbage" and we have an obligation to tidy that up.

This can be something we execute after the api/v1/whoami XHR and we can also deliberately delay it a bit so it doesn't get in the way of the first rendering path. I.e. some sort of idle callback.
