The color value for the icon badge is now
"attached" to the blocking profile value.
Additionally, as per feedback, `3p` rules
will be relaxing before master JavaScript
switch rules.

Additionally, the `3p` rule has been made distinct from
`3p-script`/`3p-frame` for the purpose of
"Relax blocking mode" command.
The badge color will hint at the current blocking mode.
There are four colors for the four following blocking
modes:
- JavaScript wholly disabled
- All 3rd parties blocked
- 3rd-party scripts and frames blocked
- None of the above
The default badge color will be used when JavaScript is not
wholly disabled and when there are no rules for `3p`,
`3p-script` or `3p-frame`.
A new advanced setting has been added to let the user choose
the badge colors for the various blocking modes,
`blockingProfileColors`. The value *must* be a sequence of
4 valid CSS color values that match 6 hexadecimal digits
prefixed with`#` -- anything else will be ignored.

The `behnind-the-scene` context was wrongly used to
evaluate the whitelist status of the context of tabless
network requests. The document origin must be used
instead when it's available.
Additionally, much code has been revisited for better
ES6 syntax compliance.
The motivations for the re-arrangement:
- Reducing the number of entry points:
matchStringExactString() has been removed and
matchString() is simply reused with a modifier parameter
to enable matching variants.
- Presumption that most matches, if any, occur early with
the left-most tokens in a URL. This gives a very small
marginal performance gain as per built-in benchmark.
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.
