Ad notifications sometimes presented to user when Ads toggle is off - follow up to 2972

Description

Follow up to #2972

Found an additional scenario when Ads are presented to the user when Ads toggle is off in the UI.

If you toggle Rewards off, close and relaunch Brave, then toggle Rewards on, UI will show Ads as off, but in fact, Ads Service is running (you are able to see Ads Service messages in terminal if you’ve launched with the correct flags) and you will be presented with Ad notifications.

Seems as though there are two problems here:

1. When Rewards are toggled back on after browser restart, Ads are showing as off in the UI.
2. Ads Service isn’t respecting UI toggle which is set to off.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Launch Brave with a clean profile - I also used these flags --enable-logging=stderr --vmodule=brave_ads=3 --brave-ads-debug
2. Enable Rewards, Ads are enabled by default as expected.
3. Visit some sites - you will see AdsService messages in terminal as expected since Ads are on.
4. Toggle Rewards off.
5. Visit some sites, you will not see AdsService messages in terminal as expected since Ads are off.
6. Toggle Rewards back on.
7. Visit some sites, you will see AdsService messages in terminal as expected since Ads are on.
8. Toggle Rewards off.
9. Close Brave.
10. Relaunch Brave (I used the same flags as before)
11. Toggle Rewards on again.

Actual result:

Ads toggle is off in UI, but if you visit pages you will see AdsService messages in the terminal. After a bit of browsing you will also start to get Ad notifications.

Expected result:

Since Ads were on before Rewards was disabled, I’d expect toggling Rewards on to turn on Ads. However, if Ads toggle is off in the UI, then I should not be presented with Ad notifications.

@RyanJarv sounds good 👍 I’ll give this a check tomorrow. @LaurenWags mind giving this another recheck on 0.60.48 as well?
