[CRX] Replace localStorage in telemetry logic

In MV3, the background script is a service worker. localStorage is not
supported in service workers. Switch to storage.local instead.

Data migration is not implemented because it is not needed due to the
privacy-friendly design of the telemetry: In practice the data is reset
about every 4 weeks, when the major version of Chrome is updated.
