Sites are marked trusted, if they are vouched for by a site that previously was a seed, if the later is visited again.

Steps to reproduce

1. Trust a site with a human.json (which adds it as seed)
2. Visit a site that is vouched for by that seed → ✅ trusted (green)
3. Visit the seed site again, click "Remove Trust"
4. IndexedDB contains correct data; hops=null and vouchedBy=null
5. Visit any previously vouched for site → ✅ Status not trusted (grey)
6. Reload the page from step 1 → ✅ the page is shown in status blue (has human.json)
7. Visit any previously vouched for site → ❌ Status trusted (green)

Example

Non-trusted site vouching for...	this site
01 Seed	02 Second Site

This branch contains the start of my fix. While creating the pull request, I understood that my 'fix' breaks vouch propagation from non-seed sites. I'll revisit that later on.
