Allow (temporary) changing of managed settings about browser-extension

As mentioned in #95 (comment)

That would conflict with #42 (comment)

The managed Enterprise Policy is set to give control to the admin and thus remove the control from the user.

It appears that the request is for a feature to apply a "default settings", rather than "managed storage/enterprise policy".

I have to look into the possibilities, if there is a popular demand for it.

"conflict" might be a misleading word here. Given an option "allow overwriting managed config" (which is set in the policy), the admin can choose to give the user some control back or deny them all control.

For what its worth, uBlockOrigin offers something similar [1,2]. They allow the user to change settings during runtime but reset them on every launch. Maybe it's worth a look how they implemented that.

The feature can be added if there is a popular demand for it.
