This fix the case of the following filter:
trk*.vidible.tv
Not matching:
https://trk.vidible.tv/trk/.vidible.tv
The wildcard is supposed to match any number of
characters, including zero characters. The issue
is that the code was not matching zero characters.
This is due to an incorrect comparison in
BidiTrieContainer.indexOf(), causing the code to
bail out before testing for the zero character
condition.

Leading wildcards before valid token characters need to
be kept in order to respect the semantic of the filter.
A leading wildcard in such case changes the semantic of
a filter, i.e. two following filters are semantically
different:
example/abc
*example/abc
As a result, µBlock.BidiTrieContainer.indexOf() is now
able to deal with a needle of length zero -- which is
what happens in FilterPatternLeft(Ex) with filter
patterns starting with `*` (or `^*`) and followed by
valid token characters (0-9, a-z and %).

Changes related to above issue made it possible to
create WASM versions of methods used in the bidi-trie.
In this commit, WASM versions for startsWith(), indexOf()
and lastIndexOf() have been implemented.
