Bug 1293062 - Plugin permissions are confused between Flash and the VLC plugin. Fix this by checking that the plugin name for the special Flash plugin is "Shockwave Flash", which is true of Adobe Flash but not replacement plugins such as VLC or even gnash. This causes other plugins to have their own pref tag so that users can enable/disable them separately. r=jimm
