Privacy Sandbox Settings: Remove preference reconciliation logic
When the first version of the Privacy Sandbox Settings page was
launched, logic to set the default value of the main preference was
introduced.
This logic was required to consult both synced, and un-synced, state to
determine what initial state a user should have.
This logic has been running for all users for >1 year now, and so we
expect the vast majority of users to have been appropriately
initialized.
This CL removes the logic, termed "reconciliation", from the code base.
