Fixes #3040
Removes the
FileSystemPreferencesthat we copied from the Linux preference implementation withInMemoryPreferences.Preferences are thus initialized from our
...preferences.propertiesfiles, updated with optionalsettings.inibundled in the product's "install" location, and finally updated via-settings /path/to/xx.inicommand line options either in a launcher script or directly via the command line.Preferences are no longer persisted, removing the surprises seen in the past when running a product with some
-settings ...and then still seeing the effect when later NOT running with those-settings .., which is especially confusing whenalarm-server -settings ..is followed byphoebusand the latter then sees settings from the former.Also means we no longer need to worry about deprecated API in the
FileSystemPreferences.Updated related documentation.
