Fix homescreen shortcut bug and search text disappearing bug

grant requested to merge fix-shortcut-and-search-bugs into develop

This MR fixes various issues found in Ceno v2.0.3b3,

  • Applies fix for homescreen shortcut not loading the intended page, #76 (closed)
  • Applies fix for search text disappearing, #46 (closed)
  • Updates Android Components to v114.0

Note, that the fix for #46 (closed) is dependent on a change made to our patch of ToolbarFeature, which was first released with v114.0, see mozilla-build-scripts@0cece9f5

This patch solves the main problem of search text disappearing on any given page, but it does leave one problem. After entering a search via the toolbar, the toolbar's text will be set (or reset) to the searchTerms on any change to the tab (i.e. it is impossible to enter new search terms until the search page finishes loading since the toolbar's text is constantly being rewritten to the previous search terms). I feel that this is less bad than the url disappearing, so I'm okay completing this merge and releasing the partial fix in the next official Ceno release.

Heads up, @mhqz and @jnny, review whenever y'all feel like it.
