This extends coverage of strict-blocking to pattern-based filters
with `doc` filter option.
When proceeding with a URL-skip URL present, no temporary bypass
will be created when the "Don't warn me again about this site" is
left unchecked. The idea is to avoid the intermediate redirects
if we navigate again on the same strict-blocked site, while a
temporary bypass would prevent this.
uBO's "Badware risks" list has been spinned off as its own list.
The idea is that should a site be strict-blocked from that list,
we would want to know the strict-block is due to the
"Badware risks" list.
Deserialization failed to restore proper ArrayBuffer when used by
multiple TypedArrays.
This didn't affect uBO since this specific code path was never
taken.

Using quotes in filter option values is meant to remove ambiguity
when the value contains special characters. This was not working when
the value started with `$`. For example, fixes usage of quotes in:
$removeparam='$deep_link'
Also, fixed logger output for scriptlets using empty parameters
in quotes.

Cosmetic filters with only negated hostnames would end up being
classified as specific, while in reality the filter is generic, with
specific exceptions.
This commit fixes the improper classification. Enforcing specific
exception filters in the generic realm is still an issue to
address.
Add information about which ruleset caused a page to be strict-
blocked.
Whenever possible, add ability to URL-skip an incoming redirect
in a strict-blocked page.
Add new default list: "30-day Phishing Domain List"

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.

Use blob-based injection only when direct injection fails because
of a page's CSP. This is a mitigation until a better approach is
devised.
Such future better approach to investigate:
- Use `MAIN` world injection supported by contentScript.register()
since Firefox 128
- Investigate registering script to inject ahead of time thru
some heuristic
Add support for range for the `delay` paramater:
---
@param [delay]
A value to match against the delay. Can be a single value for exact match,
or a range:
- `min-max`: matches if delay >= min and delay <= max
- `min-`: matches if delay >= min
- `-max`: matches if delay <= max
No delay means to match any delay value.
Prepend with `!` to reverse the match condition.

As discussed with filter list maintainers.
As discussed with filter list maintainers, added ability to
partially replace an argument using the `repl:` prefix. Updated
documentation:
---
@scriptlet trusted-replace-argument.js
@description
Replace an argument passed to a method. Requires a trusted source.
@param propChain
The property chain to the function which argument must be replaced when
called.
@param argposRaw
The zero-based position of the argument in the argument list. Use a negative
number for a position relative to the last argument.
@param argraw
The replacement value, validated using the same heuristic as with the
`set-constant.js` scriptlet.
If the replacement value matches `json:...`, the value will be the
json-parsed string after `json:`.
If the replacement value matches `repl:/.../.../`, the target argument will
be replaced according the regex-replacement directive following `repl:`
@param [, condition, pattern]
Optional. The replacement will occur only when pattern matches the target
argument.

Aditionally, more scriptlets moved into their own files.

Add "Filter lists" pane in dashboard
The DNR API now supports enabling 50 static rulesets put of a
maximum of 100 (instead of 10 out of 50 originally). Thus given
the potentially growing number of static rulesets, the available
stock rulesets has been moved to its own pane, with the following
improvements:
- Support sublists
- Support search
Aditionally, "RU AdList: Counter" has been added as a stock
ruleset.
Other changes:
- Do not re-evaluate regexes which failed validation
- Better reduce `removeparam` rules
Potentially breaking change:
`urlskip=` option will no longer apply by default to blocked network
requests, only network requests which are not blocked can be skipped
through a `urlskip=` filter.
The new `urlskip=` directive `-blocked` can be used to explicitly
allow a `urlskip=` filter to also apply to blocked network requests.
Example: given the filter `||example.com^`, the filter:
||example.com/path/to/tracker$urlskip=?url
Will not prevent strict-blocking when navigating to:
https://example.com/path/to/tracker?url=https://example.org/
However, the filter:
||example.com/path/to/tracker$urlskip=-blocked ?url
Will cause the strict-blocking to be ignored and allow navigation
to proceed to the URL extracted as a result of applying the `urlskip=`
filter:
https://example.org/

The first capture group of the regex will be used as the result of the
transformation. Example:
||podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/$urlskip=/podtrac\.com\/pts\/redirect\.mp3\/(.*?\.mp3\b)/ +https
If the regex is invalid, or if it fails to extract a first capture
group, no redirection will occur.
A single request can require multiple calls to the static network
filtering engine (SNFE). The reported timing is the result of
going through *all* the required calls to SNFE. In effect, a
single call to SNFE.match() is a fraction of the reported timing.
BroadcastChannel constructor throws in Firefox when Enhanced
Tracking Protection is set to "strict".
This behavior could cause scriptlet injection to wholly break
when uBO's logger was opened, as BroadcastChannel() is used
by scriptlets to report information to the logger.
This commit ensures that exceptions from BroadcastChannel
constructor are properly handled.
The scriptlets will fall back to report at the console should
they be unable to report to the logger through BroadcastChannel.
Ensure serialization returns copy of data rather than live
references to data. This allows to immediately deserialize() the
result of serialize().
Also, adjust code to modified behavior of filterQuery().

When the "No large media elements" per-site switch is toggled on,
it will also act to prevent autoplay of video/audio media, regardless
of their size. This also works for xhr-based media streaming.
If blocking by size is not desirable while blocking autoplay is
desired, one can toggle on "No large media elements" switch while
setting "Block media elements larger than ..." to a very high value.
