The "exceptor" feature has been rewritten, with the following
changes as a result:
- The excepted filters cease to exist when closing the logger
- It's now possible to temporary except network filters
When toggling on/off a temporary exception, filter lists are now
fully reloaded. This simplified managing temporary exceptions, and
made it easy to implement temporary exception for network filters,
but this also means there might be a perceptible delay when
adding/removing temporary exceptions. At this point I consider
this an acceptable side-effect just to bring the ability to easily
create temporary exception for network filters, while this
simplified the existing temporary exception code throughout.
Bring latest changes to procedural cosmetic filtering to uBOL.
Fix procedural filtering used in HTML filters.
Standardize quick hash algorithm used throughout to DJB2
(except that initialization step is skipped):

These two new pseudo selectors are _action_ operators, and thus can
only be used at the end of a selector. They both take as argument
a string or regex literal.
For `:remove-class()`, when the argument matches a class name, that
class name is removed.
For `:remove-attr()`, when the argument matches an attribute name,
that attribute is removed.
These operators are meant to replace `+js(remove-attr, ...)` and
`+js(remove-class, ...)`, which from now on are candidate for
deprecation in some future.
Once the next stable release is widespread, filter authors must use
these two new operators instead of their `+js()` counterparts.

The supported syntax is exactly as per AdGuard's documentation:
- https://kb.adguard.com/en/general/how-to-create-your-own-ad-filters#extended-css-matches-attr
Though recommended, the quotes are not mandatory in uBO if
the argument does not cause the parser to fail and if there
are no ambiguities.
Additionally, improved the code to better unquote pseudo-operator
arguments, and to bring it closer to how AdGuard does it as per
documentation. When using quotes, `"` and `\` should be escaped
to preserve these characters in the unquoted version of the
argument.
Additionally, it is now possible to have `:has-text()` match the
empty string by just quoting the empty string:
...##foo:has-text("")

Some CSS4-based selectors are not supported in older browser versions
and this may cause cosmetic filtering to be wholly broken as a result.
The commit here is to isolate generic cosmetic filters from specific
ones in stylesheets such that unsupported CSS4 selectors in generic
cosmetic filters do not cause wholly breakage of cosmetic filtering
on all sites.
`uDom` is old and crusty and `dom` is meant as replacement. The
goal of `dom` is to be simpler and mainly just convenience
methods for handling the DOM with vanilla JS -- this is not a
framework.
Additionally, removed keyboard shortcuts pane which was useful
only on very old versions of Firefox.

Possibly because the Opera sidebar window is a special
case, it appears the scriptlets must be injected at a
later time.
Use a global isolated window variable to detect whether
the scriptlets have really be injected, and ultimately
inject them at main content script time when it is found
they haven't been injected at that point.
This commit make it so scriptlet injections will occur
at the earliest possible time on all platform.
This should also fix the case reported at:
- https://www.reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/comments/ye6abt/
Which is caused by the fact that there is no webNavigation
events being fired by the browser. In such case, the changes
here will make it so that uBO will detect that the scriptlet
were not injected and will inject them at main content script
injection time.
