## Description
Clearing "Site and Shields Settings" (**_brave://settings/clear… BrowserData_**) resets Brave's global Shields settings (**_brave://settings/shields_**).
## Steps to Reproduce

## Actual result:
Global Shields settings are reset.
## Expected result:
Clearing "Site and Shields Settings" shouldn't reset Brave's global Shields settings. Clearing browsing data for "Site and Shields Settings" should clear site-specific Shields settings, as explained here: https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/15319#issuecomment-821273456.
