The current implementation reports statistics for all
static filters, and the presentation/featureset is
intentionally minimal: *Do not open issues about this.*
It's still a work in progress and it will be worked on
slowly and thoughtfully over time and as time allows.
Pausing the logger will not pause the collation of
filter hit statistics, thus it is possible to lower
the logger overhead by pausing logger output without
losing filter hit collation.

Additionally, the extended exception filters in the
logger will be rendered with a line-through to more
easily distinguish them from non-exception ones.
Also, opportunistically converted revisited code to
ES6 syntax.
Performance-related work: the logger data has been decoupled
from the DOM -- inspired from CodeMirror's way of efficiently
handling large amout of text data.
This decoupling now makes the logger highly efficient CPU- and
memory-wise, and open the way to more possibilities.
Ability to configure some aspect of the logger behavior and
visuals:
- The hard-coded limit of 5000 entries has been
removed and is now replaced with a variety of
user-configurable settings to enforce the discarding of
logger entries.
- Some columns in the logger output can now be hidden.
The filter list look-up feature has been merged into the
existing overlay dialog used to create URL rules or static
filters, as an entry in a new "Details" pane.

A new advanced settings has been added: `autoCommentFilterTemplate`.
Default value is `{{date}} {{origin}}`.
Placeholders are identified by `{{...}}`. There are currently
only three placeholders supported:
- `{{date}}`: will be replaced with current date
- `{{time}}`: will be replaced with current time
- `{{origin}}`: will be replaced with site information on which
the filter(s) was created
If no placeholder is found in `autoCommentFilterTemplate`, this
will disable auto-commenting. So one can use `-` to disable
auto-commenting.
Additionally, if auto-commenting is enabled, uBO will not emit a
comment if an emitted comment would be a duplicate of the last
one found in the user filter list.
- Default to being detached
- Default to "Current tab"
- Append current tab title to "Current tab" entry
- Avoid iterating through all tabs when no change
