IPA web UI isn't functional when browser doesn't send http headers.

This patch adds a functionality which sets Firefox 
network.http.sendRefererHeader configuration option to value '2' which 
enables it.

Possible values: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Network.http.sendRefererHeader

I was also thinking about upgrading the configure.jar. We had a ticket 
for it, which ended by documenting the steps.

I think the documentation is wrong. In it we are rebuilding the .jar 
from /usr/share/ipa/html/preferences.html, this file is created on 
server install and it is never updated therefore the .jar won't be 
updated. The updated file is its template (the one changed in this 
patch). The template output is created in 
httpinstance.__setup_autoconfig() call.

For my development purposes I took this code and created a script which 
rebuilds the .jar file (attached). Do we want to use it?
