We want to add plumbing to allow for WebRender experiments with our Linux using population. This change is intended to allow it on qualified Intel devices only and with screens that are not too big.

Linux machines using Intel graphics with Mesa drivers being at least
18.2.8.0 and not 4k displays should be able to run WebRender well, given
this is a common configuration used for testing already by Mozilla. This
patch allows users meeting said requirements to join the WebRender
experiments on nightly. WebRender will remain disabled by default for
other configurations/devices.

Minor fix to correct the debug assertion (switched from DisableByDefault to just plain Disable).

Looks like I have to check to see if HW_COMPOSITING was disabled by the runtime due to safe mode / headless before trying to disable it due to environment.
