Though Firefox shares a lot of WebExtensions code with Chromium,
these platforms have their own specific code paths, for various
reasons.
The reorganization here makes it clear that Chromium platform is
just one flavor of WebExtensions, and as such all Chromium-specific
code paths should no longer be automatically pulled by other
platforms where these code paths are not needed.
Given that the filepath of many files changed, here is the

The title of tabs in uBO is solely to have a better
presentation in the logger -- no other purpose.
This commit simplify keeping track of the titles, from
an active approach by directly querying it from tabs
whenever a change occurs, to a passive approach by
storing it when the title string become available in
some tab event handlers.
There were spurious error messages in the dev console of
uBO in Firefox, because Firefox does not silently ignore
duplicate contextual menu entries, which could occur
transiently when the contextual menu entries were updated.
The fix simplifies contextual menu code, and actually
fulfill the original goal of avoiding to call extensions
framework API as much as possible.

The new replacement script contains the smallest API
possible to resolve the reported case.
Please report instances where it's not sufficient to
unbreak a site, in which case I will extend the neutered
API to address these cases on an on-demand basis.

The element picker will now properly work on sites where
cosmetic filtering is disabled, but will not allow the
creation of cosmetic filters when specific cosmetic filters
are not meant to be enforced in the current page.
When specific cosmetic filters are not meant to be enforced,
the element picker will still allow the creation of network
filters, that is unless the current page is trusted, in which
case using the element picker is pointless.

This takes care of the specific case reported. There are
other edge cases which are likely not addressed though, i.e.
those involving wildcards -- those should be rather rare and
at this point I rather leave them unaddressed to not
risk regressions (as they are less trivial to address).
