Disables uneccessary easter egg modules in Jetpack, notably Holiday Snow

<h3>What does it do?</h3>
<p>If you have a site with multiple subpages, you might have some positions in your template where you probably want to manage individual content (like a sidebar, a footer, a banner or whatever). The WordPress widgets can display content in specific widget-positions, but you can’t tell WordPress to only display your content on a certain page – That’s where my plugin comes in.</p>
<p>You can create different module positions, assign content and choose on which pages it will be shown. If you use WordPress as a CMS, this will be very helpful.</p>
<h3>Create Module Positions</h3>
<p>First, you can create different module positions. Rename these as you want. To put a module position in your template you can easily copy & paste the shortcode right next to the positions’s name. if you have already created content, you can drag and drop these around to change their order.</p>
<h3>Create Content</h3>
<p>Now, you can create content for your module positions. You can choose on which pages, categories or posts your content will be displayed. For this information your <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Appearance_Menus_Screen/" title="custom menus" rel="nofollow ugc">custom menus</a> will be loaded (which are defined in your template).</p>
<p>If there are categories with posts in your custom menu, click the “+”-button to show them. You also can choose on which posts your content will be displayed here.</p>
<h3>Define your HTML-markup</h3>
<p>In the little metabox on the right side, you can simply define your HTML-markup. Try writing <code>{{post_content}}</code> for your content and <code>{{post_title}}</code> for your title – A list of all values can be <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_post#Return" title="get_post" rel="nofollow ugc">found here</a>. To reset your markup just click on “Reset”, that will load the standard markup (which can be changed on the settings page).</p>
<h3>Settings</h3>
<ul>
<li>Change your standard HTML-markup. If you click on “Reset” in your moduleposition-posts, this will be loaded.</li>
<li>Change the order of posts in the drop-down menus of your categories. That may be useful if you have a lot of posts in a category and you want to find a special post.</li>
</ul>
