Since the search worker can go away after its time-to-live
elapsed, we may need to pass again the haystack on which
search operations are performed.
Before this commit, CodeMirror's add-on for search occurrences
was limited to find at most 1000 first occurrences, because of
performance considerations.
This commit removes this low limit by having the search
occurrences done in a dedicated worker. The limit is now
time-based, and highly unlikely to ever be hit under normal
condition.
With this change, all search occurrences are gathered,
and as a result:
- All occurrences are reported in the scrollbar instead of
just the 1,000 first
- The total count of all occurrences is now reported, instead
of capping at "1000+".
- The current occurrence rank at the cursor or selection
position is now reported -- this was not possible to report
this before.
The number of occurrences is line-based, it's not useful to
report finer-grained occurences in uBO.
Since it's possible to execute specific code paths according
to whether the context is that of a worker or not, it's possible
to keep the main/thread code in a single file. Keeping the
main/worker code paths into a single file is more convenient
for both code maintenance and code review.

Usage of space in network filter patterns will now be
strictly interpreted as the filter being a hosts file
entry.
Usage of space in any other scenario will cause the
pattern of the network filter to be rejected as
erroneous.
The pseudo user styles code served only browsers based
on Chromium 65 and earlier -- Chromium 66 supports
native user styles and was first released more than two
years ago.
In Chromium-based browsers, the pseudo user styles code
is being unconditionally injected in every page/frame
just in case the browser is version 65 or earlier.
Removing pseudo user styles reduce uBO's main content
script in Chromium-based browsers by more than 20K.

No need to mind rejected promise after all,
vAPI.tabs.executeScript() is designed to
not fail -- I had forgotten about this.

As a result of earlier redesign, the magnifier ended
up being too small. The size of the magnifier will now
be dependent on the default font size instead of the
parent font size.

It's not clear the code here will fix the reported
issue, but I did identify that the subframe
dictionary of a very long-lived web page can
theoretically grow unbound.

The test is useful to ensure no runaway memory consumption
in uBO's main process, and is also useful as rough performance
assessment, i.e. we want uBO's main process to be low CPU, etc.
Useful to use with Chromium's Task Manager, which reports both
memory and CPU usage.
Typically to be used with uBO with default settings/lists.
