Purging all the lists from cache storage is detrimental to
differential update, and cause filter lists to be updated less
often and consequently to be less up to date then when letting
differential updater do its work.
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.)
`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.
Too many changes to list here, essentially there is now a
user interface setting to enable/disable dark theme, and
I've rearranged a bit the Settings pane as a result and
also altered other visuals in various places.
There are places which I know have not been thoroughly
tested (i.e. logger inspector).
Will fine-tune as per feedback.
Issues with the classic popup panel will not be addressed,
and if feedback is that it has become unusuable, it will be
outright removed.

The new setting, when disabled (enabled by default), allows a user
to prevent uBO from waiting for all filter lists to be loaded
before allowing network activity at launch. The setting is enabled
by default, meaning uBO waits for all filter lists to be loaded in
memory before unsuspending network activity. Some users may find
this behavior undesirable, hence the new setting.
This gives the option to potentially speed up page load at launch,
at the cost of potentially not properly filtering network requests
as per filter lists/rules.
For platforms not supporting the suspension of network activity,
the setting will merely prevent whatever mechanism exists on the
platform to mitigate improper filtering of network requests at
launch. For example, in Chromium-based browsers, unchecking the
new setting will prevent the browser from re-loading tabs for
which there was network activity while in "suspended" state at
launch.

This is yet another incremental step toward
redesigning the UI, much more is left to do.
The idea is to align uBO's UI to that of
Firefox Preview.
Additionally, code has been added to reset
the new popup panel to vertical layout should
the viewport be not wide enough to
accomodate the horizontal layout.

This commit focuses on implementing the use of
CSS `var(...)` throughout so as to make it easy
to create themes -- a requirement for uBO to
support a dark theme.
There is still work to do regarding converting
uBO's CSS to completely support `var(...)` but
being able to start using theming will help
complete and fine tune CSS `var(...)` support.

The changes in this commit are mostly related
to the "Filter lists" pane.
An eye icon has been added, which purpose is
to view the content of a list. Clicking on the
name of the list will toggle the list's
checkbox.
Little-used code from vapi-client.js has been moved
to vapi-client-extra.js. Given that vapi-client.js
is injected in all web pages, this means less dead
code being injected in all pages.
Swathes of code in vapi-client.js was used only in
a few very specific cases, such as when the logger's
DOM inspector is opened or when the "Filter lists"
pane in the dashboard is opened -- and thus to avoid
that little used code to be loaded in every web page
unconditionally, it has been moved to its own
separate file, vapi-client.extra.js.
vapi-client-extra.js is loaded declaratively or
programmatically only where needed.
