To minimize delay to First Contentful Paint. The idea is to avoid
complex data structures such as Map in order to speed up first content
script execution. Use stringified arrays where practical and
instanciate those arrays from their stringified representation only
when there are actual cosmetic filters to apply.

Since permissions are now managed by the browsers, the browser will take
care whether to enforce those "usafe" rules according to the permissions
in effect on a given site.

The `header=` option will be converted into DNR's `responseHeaders`
condition.
There will be an attempt to convert regex-based values into DNR-
compatible syntax. Not all regex-based patterns can be converted to
use DNR's patterns with `*` and `?` special characters.
The implementation of `header=` option in uBO has been revisited to
improve compatibility with DNR syntax to minimize burden for list
maintainers when creating `header=` filters compatible with both
uBO and uBOL.
The changes:
- Header names are now case-insensitive by default
- Occurrences of `*` in non-regex-based header values now mean
"matches any number of characters"
- Occurrences of `?` in non-regex-based header values now mean
"matches zero or one character"
At time of commit, and as per MDN, only Chromium-based browsers
currently support filtering on repsonse headers:
https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/declarativeNetRequest/HeaderInfo
Also as per MDN, Chromium 121-127 silently ignore the `responseHeaders`
condition, potentially causing undue blocking of network requests.
Currently uBOL support Chromium 122 and later, meaning we need to mind
potential false positives in Chromium 122-127 for filters using
`header=` option.
`generichide` option is implicitly enforced on all sites unless an
exception overrides `generichide`. Though rare, sometimes a
`generichide` exception needs to be overridden so that generic
cosmetic filtering is made possible on a specific site.
This commit is to add support for restoring generic cosmetic
filtering on sites which were excluded through a `generichide`
exception.
Concretely, this is needed to ensure the test suite can properly
verify that generic cosmetic filtering is working when the
filtering mode is set to "complete":

Microsoft Edge for Android requires a "link to the core function
test cases for your Edge Android extension" to verify that the
extension function properly.
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.

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"
