Fix issues with feed detection
Query the feed probe content script for available feeds from the background
script instead of making the content script message the background script.
This solves a race condition between the message from the content script
sending any feeds associated with the current document and the tab's status
"complete" event signaling that a new document has been loaded and hiding
the page action. Sometimes that event would be triggered after the message
from the content script and thus hide the page action again. In addition,
navigating back to a previously visited page might not cause a reload which
means that the content script would not send a message if there were feeds
associated with the current document.
