Add an option to disable checking for updates
Is this a bug or feature request?
Feature request
What is the current behavior?
In #676, we added support for allowing web-ext to alert the user whenever their version of web-ext becomes outdated.
What is the expected or desired behavior?
We should add support for a --disable-update-check option so that the user can turn this feature off as needed.
Additionally, reduce the time interval for checking updates from 7 days to 2-3 days. See #676.
