In order to create a toggle switch (instead of a drop-down menu) for the global setting, it was necessary to create a pref. But we are still tying both the global and per-site content settings to the respective toggle switches.

You can create it with an empty pref. Please take a look at how forgetFirstPartyStorageControlType is implemented. It uses an empty pref and handles changes via callback.
