browser.urlbar.matchBehavior is a pref that allows, by setting obscure values, to change the matching mode of the urlbar. possible values are:
MATCH_ANYWHERE,
MATCH_BOUNDARY_ANYWHERE,
MATCH_BOUNDARY,
MATCH_BEGINNING,
MATCH_BEGINNING_CASE_SENSITIVE,
exposed by mozIPlacesAutoComplete.
A few of these are not used, others can be merged.
All of this complicates things, and the outcome is not much clear, we don't experiment with these from a long long time, and the default behavior always satisfied users needs.
All that we need is:
1. Search on boundary and then, if not enough results were found) everywhere
2. search unmodified strings (no trimming)

Remove browser.urlbar.matchBehavior pref. Remove code for BEGINNING behaviors, and stop referencing MATCH_BOUNDARY_ANYWHERE from our code.
