Disable the referral stuff by default and ask the users to opt-in if they want to support the project

Problem description

Heroic uses an ad tracker to insert a referral code for purchases done through the app at the GOG store. It's fair, funding helps the project. However, having it enabled by default, not asking permission from the user, and not implementing an option to enable/disable it, is not the best course of action, IMHO, and it can erode the user's trust in the application.

Feature description

When opening the application for the first time, have the ad tracker disabled by default and ask the user to enable it to support the project. Also, provide an option to enable/disable it, in case the user changes their mind.
