uBO will use the information from prefers-color-scheme to reduce
likelihood of background color flash. However this works only for
when prefers-color-scheme is properly set by the browser, and only
when uBO's theme selection is "auto", or when it happens to
match that of prefers-color-scheme.

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.
Reported internally.
The issue involves `removeparam` filters with a regex value. When
such filter was visited before a selfie was created, this would cause
the created selfie to persist a RegExp object, which can't be
serialized. This would cause exceptions to be thrown when uBO would
be subsequently loaded with the tainted selfie, since uBO would try
to execute a plain Object as a RegExp.
This will allow to find out what is specifically blocked on the
page reported as having issues, potentially saving time
when volunteers try to diagnose issues.

In above related commit, uBO was modified to cache the URL of the
last clicked link, and to use this cached URL to test for the
legitimacy of the newly opened tab.
The current commit add back a test against the URL of the last
clicked link to avoid false positives when navigating from within
the newly opened tab.

The new setting, when disabled (enabled by default), allows a user
to prevent uBO from waiting for all filter lists to be loaded
before allowing network activity at launch. The setting is enabled
by default, meaning uBO waits for all filter lists to be loaded in
memory before unsuspending network activity. Some users may find
this behavior undesirable, hence the new setting.
This gives the option to potentially speed up page load at launch,
at the cost of potentially not properly filtering network requests
as per filter lists/rules.
For platforms not supporting the suspension of network activity,
the setting will merely prevent whatever mechanism exists on the
platform to mitigate improper filtering of network requests at
launch. For example, in Chromium-based browsers, unchecking the
new setting will prevent the browser from re-loading tabs for
which there was network activity while in "suspended" state at
launch.
As the trie is not immediately created, in order to speed up
launch time, the `domain=` option was stored in the filterRefs
array until it was moved to the trie.
This commit instead stores the `domain=` option into the trie
container's character buffer.
This commit will force-reload active tabs at launch for
environments not supporting suspend network request listeners,
or configured to not suspend network request listeners.
Refactored heuristics to collate set of origin-related
filter units are collated into a hostname trie, and
for better reuse of existing classes.
Generalized pre-test idea for bucket of filters, such
that in addition to origin-related filter units, there is
now a class to collate regex-based pattern-related units
into a new pre-test bucket class, FilterBucketIfRegexHits,
in order to test with a single regex test whether there is
a chance of a hit in the underlying bucket of filters.
Instances of these are rare, but at time of commit I found
this occurs with AdGuard France filter list.
Fine-tuned the "SNFE: Dump" output -- this new ability to
see the internal details of the SNFE has been really key
into finding/fixing issues during refactoring.
