The purpose is to prevent a call to an existing function from
throwing an exception. The exception will be caught by the
scriptlet and neutralized.
The first argument must be a reference to a function call. At
the moment, the function call must exist at the time the
scriptlet is called.

If the first argument is a regex with multine flag set, the
scriptlet will execute the regex against the whole text, and
remove matching text from the whole text.
If the matching text does not contains whole lines, the text
won't be removed, i.e. it is not allowed to remove only part
of a line.
This new context menu entry will be available only when the
advanced setting `filterAuthorMode` is set to `true`. See:
https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Advanced-settings#filterauthormode
The purpose is for filter list maintainers to easily access
the source code of web pages when investigating filter issues,
without having to necessarily go through the logger.
Additionally an input field to enter URL directly has been
added to the code viewer for convenience.

Usage:
- example.com##+js(href-sanitizer, a[href^="/go?to="]:not([title]))
- example.com##+js(href-sanitizer, a[href^="/go?to="][title], [title])
The second argument is the attribute from which to extract the text
to be used for the `href` attribute of the link. If the second
attribute is absent, the text content of the element will be used.

Usage:
example.com##+js(href-from-text, a[href^="/tracker-link?to="]
The above scriptlet will find all elements matching the selector
passed as 1st argument, and replace the `href` attribute with the
text content of the element, if all the following conditions are
met:
- The element is a link (`a`) element
- The link element has an existing `href` attribute
- The text content of the element is a valid `https`-based URL
