One small thing: I tried testing out the case where it should be disabled and for some reason the checkbox is still clickable which I assume wasn't intended?
The settings page has been renamed to the "Experiment Loader" page because all the controls are for experiment loading. Copy has been added that describes what each control does. Updating with `forceSync: true` is no longer supported as it usually won't work due to returning stale cached records from Remote Settings. We now return both the cached value of the experiments collection (i.e., what collection Nimbus is currently using) and the current value of the collection pref when requesting the current collection. We use this information to inform users that they must restart their browser when switching to the preview collection. The collection controls have been simplified to a single checkbox which enables the preview collection. The ability to set custom collections has been removed and now this page will be disabled if it detects a custom collection. Fixes #74
