Fixed:
- Expect the differ can return the first input as is when
there is no difference between the two items.
- Better deal with extraneous whitespaces in `srcset`
The purpose is to avoid having to iterate through
all input nodes at each operator implementation
level. The `transpose` method deals with only one
input node, and the iteration is performed by the
main procedural filtering entry points.
Additionally:
- Add `:spath` to HTML filtering
- Rename `:watch-attrs` to `:watch-attr`
- `:watch=attrs` is deprecated and will be kept around
until it is safe to remove it completely
Where `x` is the minimal text length of the subject
DOM element. DOM elements whose text length is
greater than or equal to `x` will be selected.
The original rationale for such procedural cosmetic
operator[1] is to be able to remove inline script
elements according to a minimum text length using
HTML filtering.

Repro steps were:
- Open the logger
- Navigate to `https://news.ycombinator.com/`
- Select an element using the element picker
- Click "Preview"
An attribute selector used internally by uBO to
hide targeted nodes was being reported in the
logger.
- Remove HNTrieContainer class from global context by
storing it as a property of µBlock.
- Use block scope to isolate HNTrie-related constants
from global context.
- Prevent filters which are pure IP address from
being stored in an HNTrie instance -- as this
could cause false positives.
The bidirectional trie allows storing the right
and left parts of a string into a trie given a
pivot position.
Releated issue:

Additionally, the mandatory token-at-index-0 rule
for FilterPlainHnAnchored has been lifted, thus
allowing the engine to pick a potentially better token
at any position in the filter string.

TODO: Eventually rename `strie.js` to `biditrie.js`.
TODO: Fix dump() method, it currently only show the
right-hand side of a filter string.

The service worker-related issue affects both
Chromium/Firefox: the type of resources fetched
from a service worker are uniformly set to
`xmlhttprequest`, hence losing a key piece of
information for the purpose of accurate content
filtering.
