* install.py: Integrate waterfox and default to firefox user.js always

This commit:
- Removes the old --zen switch
- Adds a new --browser/-b switch to specify the browser. Available
  options: firefox, waterfox, zen
- Now defaults to the firefox user.js even if there's new user.js added

-// Firefox concurrently sends requests for cached resources to both the

-// result arrives first and cancels the other request. This approach sometimes
-// loads pages faster because the network can be quicker than accessing the cache
-// on a hard drive. When RCWN is enabled, the request might be served from
-// the server even if you have valid entry in the cache. Set to false if your
-// intention is to increase cache usage and reduce network usage.
