I see Firefox syncing even though I just uninstalled/reinstalled it. Maybe we should wipe that stuff on uninstall?

Kill em all.
Post-triage thorough comment: Eventually we might want to do something like offer a streamlined re-login. Right now, though, if prefs stick around between installs but data doesn't, then sync won't work correctly. The short-term fix is to make sure that doesn't happen: a fresh install should act like a fresh install. This might have some bearing on Bug 1151336, too.

This tries to detect "first-run" by the lack of a profile directory. If there isn't one, we clear any prefs/fx-accounts associated with this profile.
