When navigating away by clicking another pane tab button,
there will be an embedded warning, which can be ignore
in order to proceed to the new pane, or dismissed by
either clicking on the "Stay" button or anywhere else
in the dashboard.
When navigating away by trying to close the tab, there will
be a built-in browser warning asking for confirmation.

The new advanced setting and its default value is:
allowGenericProceduralFilters false
Whenever this setting is toggled, the user is responsible
of forcing a reload of all filter lists so as to allow uBO
to process differently any existing generic procedural
cosmetic filters.

Built-in whitelist directives are now rendered differently
than user-defined whitelist directives. Also, removing a
built-in whitelist directive will only cause that directive
to be commented out, so that users do not have to remember
built-in directives should they want to bring them back.

The built-in per-site switch rule
`no-scripting: behind-the-scene false` has been removed,
it should not ever be needed since there will always be a
valid root context for main- and sub-frames.

The issue fixes previewing the hiding/unhiding of targeted
elements in the element picker.
However it does not address the case of previewing
`:style(...)` operators -- this would require a much
more complex fix, which I am not sure is worth the
amount of work and increased code complexity.

Additionally, the extended exception filters in the
logger will be rendered with a line-through to more
easily distinguish them from non-exception ones.
Also, opportunistically converted revisited code to
ES6 syntax.
This was a TODO item:
- 07cbae66a4/src/js/cosmetic-filtering.js (L375)
µBlock.staticExtFilteringEngine.HostnameBasedDB has been
re-factored to accomodate the storing of specific cosmetic
filters.
As a result of this refactoring:
- Memory usage has been further decreased
- Performance of selector retrieval marginally
improved
- New internal representation opens the door
to use a specialized version of HNTrie, which
should further improve performance/memory
usage

Wildcards are now allowed in the hostname part of redirect
filters. There will be an attempt to find the longest
right-hand portion of the hostname with no wildcard. If
no non-empty hostname can be extracted, `*` will be used.
