Some filters with entity-based domain option can be salvaged
when there are non-entity-based domain option, but since we are
throwing away the entity-based entries, we are only partially
converting to DNR. This commit will log a warning about this
in log.txt. Before this commit, only non-salvageable filters
were logged.
This reflects the _world_ of the MV3 scripting API:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/scripting/ExecutionWorld
MAIN: page's world
ISOLATED: extension's content script world
Some scriptlets are best executed in either world, so this
commit allows to pick in which world a scriptlet should execute
(default to MAIN).
For instance, the new sed.js scriptlet will now execute in
the ISOLATED world.
At the moment, the only filter lists deemed from a "trusted source"
are uBO-specific filter lists (i.e. "uBlock filters -- ..."), and
the user's own filters from "My filters".
A new scriptlet which can only be used by filter lists from trusted
sources has been introduced: `sed.js`.
The new `sed.js` scriptlet provides the ability to perform
text-level substitutions. Usage:
example.org##+js(sed, nodeName, pattern, replacement, ...)
`nodeName`
The name of the node for which the text content must be substituted.
Valid node names can be found at:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Node/nodeName
`pattern`
A string or regex to find in the text content of the node as the target of
substitution.
`replacement`
The replacement text. Can be omitted if the goal is to delete the text which
matches the pattern. Cannot be omitted if extra pairs of parameters have to be
used (see below).
Optionally, extra pairs of parameters to modify the behavior of the scriptlet:
`condition, pattern`
A string or regex which must be found in the text content of the node
in order for the substitution to occur.
`sedCount, n`
This will cause the scriptlet to stop after n instances of substitution. Since
a mutation oberver is used by the scriptlet, it's advised to stop it whenever
it becomes pointless. Default to zero, which means the scriptlet never stops.
`tryCount, n`
This will cause the scriptlet to stop after n instances of mutation observer
run (regardless of whether a substitution occurred). Default to zero, which
means the scriptlet never stops.
`log, 1`
This will cause the scriptlet to output information at the console, useful as
a debugging tool for filter authors. The logging ability is supported only
in the dev build of uBO.
Examples of usage:
example.com##+js(sed, script, /devtoolsDetector\.launch\(\)\;/, , sedCount, 1)
example.com##+js(sed, #text, /^Advertisement$/)

When assessing which default lists to disable/enable after
updating from 1.48.x to 1.49.x, uBO has to ignore imported
lists, as these do not have a `off` property -- the
non-existence of this property was used to determine whether
a list was default or not. There needs to be an extra test for
whether the list is imported or not.
As discussed internally with filter list maintainers.
Additionally, added a search field to filter out lists. This
is still a work in progress, no need to open issues about this,
I am aware of what is missing (i18n, more tags, etc.)

If there exist any built-in filter list which last update time
is older than 2 hours, the "Report a filter issue" page will ask
the user to update their filter lists then verify that the issue
still exists.
Once filter lists are updated, the troubleshooting information
will reflect the change in update time.
This allows to reduce the horizontal size of the gutter; more efficient
management of folding since we already need to parse each line for the
linter; and eventually this will also allows to detect unbalanced
!#if-!#endif directives and report such cases as errors.
Additionally, keep incrementally improving error reporting details
in the linter.
maintainers.
To enable logging, use the JSON approach to pass parameters to
`acs` scriptlet. Example:
..##+js(acs, { "target": "document.oncontextmenu", "log": true })
Whereas "target", "needle", and "context" correspond to their
respective positional argument. Using JSON form to pass parameters
allows to specify extra paramters to facilitate debugging of that
scriptlet:
- `"log": true` => output useful information at the dev console.
- `"debug": true` => break at key locations in the scriptlet.
The added logging/debugging capabilities work only in the dev build
of uBO or if the advanced setting `filterAuthorMode` is set to
`true`.
As per CodeMirror's documentation, eachLine() iterator is
faster, so use this. Also no need to keep track or marked
lines, we can just find them on demand, this makes the code
simpler.
uBO will now verify that at least one unprocessed network requests
at launch should have been blocked in order to warn users of
unprocessed network requests through the `!` toolbar icon badge.
For example, with default filter lists, there is nothing to block
on `wikipedia.org`, and hence in this case it's not useful to
present the user with the `!` badge.
Therefore uBO will not show the badge *only* when at least one
unprocessed network requests should have been blocked had uBO been
ready when it was fired by the browser.

Emergency update of assets could be repeatedly launched
every 15 seconds if a resource could not be fetched from
a server. A cooldown period has been added to prevent
repeatedly launching emergency updates.
Before this commit, a network error condition was not reported
when the filter list was imported, it was only reported afterward
when the imported filter list was updated.
Caused by the fact that external filter lists do not have an
`off` property even when they are not enabled.
Additionally, set the default update cycle check period to 2hr.
