New variant detection parameter in the uninstall URL

In order to be able to track if a client inside the test groups has uninstalled ABP, we need to have a new parameter inside the uninstall URL that indicates if at least one filterlist has a variant parameter (see here: https://gitlab.com/eyeo/adblockplus/adblockpluscore/-/issues/304).
