For some reason in this file we were using new lines for the whole strings, I
think that it's some kind of leftover from the migration, I do understand that
you did it because of consistency reasons, but apparently in the crowdin the
strings are shown with new line, which is not correct, make sense to correct for
other strings as well, the problem is if we will correct that with this
codereview for other strings the translations will be gone, but we should
correct that for new strings.

As mentioned above - please keep the strings on same line, not to have new line
characters in crowdin, also I think we can use <fix> for Adblock Plus.

Feels like here you corrected the new lines, but if we will make change on
existing strings we will lose translations, so I'll suggest to keep this as
before and the changes to the strings below, not to lose translations.
