 When working on a corporate desktop you can not update your browser. When
 freely deciding about when to upgrade you might not even want to upgrade.

 Therefore a user setting has been introduced to remove the nag warning.
 E.g. my linux distro is perfectly ok with it's firefox and it's taken care
 of by the pacakager. For my OS, I have the latest version.

 I needed to press dismiss (with JS enabled, the related report is #17766).

 What has been missed is to not display that nag if javascript is disabled.
 The setting gets ignored.

 How to Reproducde

   * Setup a WP 3.2.1 Blog.
   * Log into admin with a Firefox 3 browser.
   * Enable Javascript.
   * Dismiss the Nag.
   * Logout and close the Browser.
   * Restart the Browser.
   * Disable Javascript (if you need to).
   * Log into Dashboard.

 Result: Browser Update Nag is displayed.

 Expected Result: Browser Update Nag is not displayed as specified by the
 user.
