New policy setting: `rulesets`
Type: array
Type of array items: string
Each item in the list is a list id (as seen in `rulesets/ruleset-details.json`),
prefixed with either `+` to enable the ruleset, or `-` to disable the ruleset.
Users will not be able to enable or disable rulesets present in the `rulesets`
policy. Disabled rulesets will not appear in the dashboard.
Use `-*` to remove all non-default rulesets, except for those added
using `+[ruleset_id]`.
Additionally, some work has been done to properly handle policy changes in
a non-blocking and deferred manner, as I observed that it often takes long
for calls to `storage.manage.get` to resolve. This potentailly takes care
of the following issue:

What does not work at the time of commit:
Cosmetic filtering does not work:
The content scripts responsible for cosmetic filtering fail when
trying to inject the stylesheets through document.adoptedStyleSheets,
with the following error message:
XrayWrapper denied access to property Symbol.iterator
(reason: object is not safely Xrayable).
See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Xray_vision for more
information. ... css-declarative.js:106:8
A possible solution is to inject those content scripts in the
MAIN world. However Firefox scripting API does not support MAIN
world injection at the moment.
Scriptlet-filtering does not work:
Because scriptlet code needs to be injected in the MAIN world,
and this is currently not supported by Firefox's scripting API,
see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1736575
There is no count badge on the toolbar icon in Firefox, as it
currently does not support the `DNR.setExtensionActionOptions`
method.
Other than the above issues, it does appear uBO is blocking
properly with no error reported in the dev console.
The adoptedStyleSheets issue though is worrisome, as the
cosmetic filtering content scripts were designed with ISOLATED
world injection in mind. Being forced to inject in MAIN world
(when available) make things a bit more complicated as uBO
has to ensure it's global variables do not leak into the page.
This commit fix properly handling toggling off the default
status of a list such that the list will be automatically
turned off when its status change from default to non-default.
Additionally, imported lists which become stock lists will
be properly migrated from imported lists section.

We need two different branches of uAssets to properly add the
default filter lists into the packages. I couldn't figure out
how to do this with submodules, using simple `git clone` as a
dependency just work.
This is a replacement for the dubious approach when the
extension itself was used to run benchmarks to detect
performance and filtering behavior regressions.
The main nodejs flavor is "npm", which is to be used to
lint/test and the publication of an official npm
package -- and by design it has dependencies on mocha,
eslint, etc.
A new flavor "dig" has been created with minimal
dependencies and which purpose is to easily allow to
write specialized code to investigate local code changes
in uBO -- and it's not meant for publication.
Consequently, "make nodejs" has been replaced with
"make npm", and a new "dig" target has been added to the
makefile, to be used for instrumenting local code changes
for investigation purpose.
