javascript: does not work in the URL bar.
- Fresh copy with newly generated profile.
- No difference with pref browser.urlbar.filter.javascript
- No difference with pref security.csp.enable
- Tested with: javascript:alert('hi');
Only Alt+Enter works. Spawns new tab and displays "hi" popup.

If you want to execute arbitrary JS on a page you can use scratchpad, the web console CLI, or even a bookmarklet if you want.
You can also potentially use a data: URI in the address bar although that may change the principal the code is executed as.
