Use `browser_specific_settings` instead of `applications`
As per MDN's documentation, `applications` is a non-standard
alias for `browser_specific_settings` in `manifest.json`:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/browser_specific_settings#Browser_compatibility

Best to use the official manifest key.

Add `unlimitedStorage` to Firefox manifest; add timeout to IndexedDB access
Related issue:
- https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/issues/416

The Chromium version of uBO has declared `unlimitedStorage` since the
extension was first published in 2014. Declaring this permission in
Firefox brings uBO inline with the Chromium version. I suspect some
reported errors could be caused by IndexedDB eviction due to the lack
of `unlimitedStorage` permission.

Additionally, a timeout has been added when uBO tries to access its
indexedDB storage. It's unclear whether this will help with the
mentioned related issue though, the root cause is still to be
identified.

Grand refactoring of the logger
Performance-related work: the logger data has been decoupled
from the DOM -- inspired from CodeMirror's way of efficiently
handling large amout of text data.

This decoupling now makes the logger highly efficient CPU- and
memory-wise, and open the way to more possibilities.

Ability to configure some aspect of the logger behavior and
visuals:
- The hard-coded limit of 5000 entries has been
  removed and is now replaced with a variety of
  user-configurable settings to enforce the discarding of
  logger entries.
- Some columns in the logger output can now be hidden.

The filter list look-up feature has been merged into the
existing overlay dialog used to create URL rules or static
filters, as an entry in a new "Details" pane.

Other issues addressed during refactoring:
- https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/issues/280
- https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/1999

The minimum version supported on Firefox has been bumped
up to 55.0.

use image data instead of paths for browser icons
When using paths, platform implementations of setIcon typically
will fetch the resource then convert to image data internally.
It is preferable for uBO to do this conversion itself as it can
be done only once at launch time.

With chromium-based browsers, using image data eliminate the
incessant network traffic to fetch browser icons as reported
in the extension's dev tool, meaning a good chunk of overhead
is eliminated.

Also, use optimal icon sizes, as of now both chromium and firefox
prefers 16px instead of 19px, and 32px instead of 38px.
