This implements basic functionality for strict blocking, i.e. the
ability to block navigation to undesirable websites. This is a
first implementation, which converts only filters that are plain
hostnames.
Unlike with uBO, it is not possible to know from which ruleset a
blocking rule originates. Nonetheless, users will have to make a
choice as to whether navigation should proceed or not.
A setting has been added to the dashboard to wholly enable/disable
strict blocking. It is enabled by default.
Potential future improvements, pending investigation on feasability
in an MV3 framework:
- Extend coverage to explicit `document` filters
- Leverage and use `urlskip=` filters in the blocking page in order
to proceed while bypassing unwanted redirects.
`uDom` is old and crusty and `dom` is meant as replacement. The
goal of `dom` is to be simpler and mainly just convenience
methods for handling the DOM with vanilla JS -- this is not a
framework.
Additionally, removed keyboard shortcuts pane which was useful
only on very old versions of Firefox.
Too many changes to list here, essentially there is now a
user interface setting to enable/disable dark theme, and
I've rearranged a bit the Settings pane as a result and
also altered other visuals in various places.
There are places which I know have not been thoroughly
tested (i.e. logger inspector).
Will fine-tune as per feedback.
Issues with the classic popup panel will not be addressed,
and if feedback is that it has become unusuable, it will be
outright removed.

There is probably more work to do regarding the
shown URL -- it might be better to truncate it
on small screen display since it can be quite
long sometimes.
