If present, `elements` vararg must be a valid CSS selector, which will
be used to apply the scriptlet to only elements matching the
selector.

Example of usage:
[...]##+js(aeld, click, return"undefined", elements, a.indirect)

Example usage:
...##+js(trusted-trusted-click-element, #cmpwrapper >>> .cmpboxbtnyes)
The substring before ` >>> ` must select an element with a non-null
shadow root, in which case the substring after ` >>> ` will be used
to find the element in the targeted shadow root. ` >>> ` can be used
recursively when multiple shadow root must be pierced.

Improvements:
Support fulfilling the response with the content of a
`web_accessible_resources` resource, using the syntax already
supported by `prevent-xhr`: `war:[name of resource]`
Support fulfilling the response with randomized text with length
specified using `length:min[-max]` directive.

The benefits of diff-patching filter lists is much shorter update
schedule and significantly less bandwidth consumed.
At the moment, only default filter lists are subject to be
diff-patched.
External filter lists can make their lists diff-patchable by
following the specification link above.
Only filter lists fetched by the auto-updater are candidate for
diff-patching.
Forcing a manual update of the filter lists will prevent the
diff-patcher from kicking in until one or more lists are
auto-updated.
Some back-of-the-envelop calculations regarding the load on free
CDN solutions used by uBO to distribute its own filter lists:
Currently, for each CDN (with lists updating after days):
~560 M req/month, ~78 TB/month
With diff-patching lists on a 6-hour schedule:
~390 M req/month, 1 TB/month
Those estimates were done according to statistics shown by
jsDelivr, which is one of 4 CDNs picked randomly when a list
updates:

Essentially a complement of `trusted-prune-inbound-object.js` added in
1c9da227d7
To perform object pruning on any object returned synchronously by
any given call.
The arguments for `trusted-prune-outbound-object` in order are:
- The name of the property to trap. Must be a function, and must
exist when the scriptlet tries to install the trap.
- The properties to prune (as with `json-prune`)
- The properties which must all be present for pruning to occur
(as with `json-prune`)
The scriptlets `json-prune.js` and `evaldata-prune.js` essentially
perform the same function, and will eventually be rewritten to
internally delegate to generic `trusted-prune-outbound-object.js`.
As per discussion with filter list maintainers.
To perform object pruning for any given call which has an object
as argument (hence "inbound").
Since `json-prune-stringify` scriptlet is a specific form of
pruning inbound objects, it has been removed.
The arguments for `trusted-prune-inbound-object` in order are:
- The name of the property to trap. Must be a function, and must
exist when the scriptlet tries to install the trap.
- The position of the object to prune in the argument list when
the trapped function is called. The position is 1-based and
must be an integer greater than 0.
- The properties to prune (as with `json-prune`)
- The properties which must all be present for pruning to occur
(as with `json-prune`)
- Varargs:
- `, dontOverwrite, 1`: do not modify the target inbound object
Examples:
Remove `title` and `name` properties before passing the object to
`JSON.stringify` call:
example.org##+js(trusted-prune-inbound-object, JSON.stringify, 1, title name)
Remove `status` property before passing the object to `Object.keys`
call but do not modify caller's instance of the object:
example.org##+js(trusted-prune-inbound-object, Object.keys, 1, status, , dontOverwrite, 1)
If the `version` vararg is present and set to `2`, and if a
fetch Request argument is present, it will be cloned before
being matched to `propsToMatch` properties.
Additionally, created a `.fn` version of `[...]-fetch-response`
scriptlets to avoid redundant code in final injected scriptlets.
Prevent usage of specific or all (default) canvas APIs.
Syntax
```text
example.com##+js(prevent-canvas [, contextType])
```
- `contextType`: A specific type of canvas API to prevent (default to all
APIs). Can be a string or regex which will be matched against the type
used in getContext() call. Prepend with `!` to test for no-match.
Examples
1. Prevent `example.com` from accessing all canvas APIs
```adblock
example.com##+js(prevent-canvas)
```
2. Prevent access to any flavor of WebGL API, everywhere
```adblock
*##+js(prevent-canvas, /webgl/)
```
3. Prevent `example.com` from accessing any flavor of canvas API except `2d`
```adblock
example.com##+js(prevent-canvas, !2d)
```

To prepare for better compatibility with AdGuard's own `set-constant`
scriptlet.
The 3rd position parameter which dictates how to set the value has
been converted into a vararg paramater, as follow:
..., as, function
..., as, callback
..., as, resolved
..., as, rejected
Similarly, the parameter used to dictate when the scriptlet
should become effective is now to be used as a vararg:
..., runAt, load

Ideally, AdGuard would support its `stack` parameter as a
vararg, to be discussed.

The `randomize` paramater introduced in https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/commit/418087de9c
is now named `directive`, and beside the `true` value which is meant
to respond with a random 10-character string, it can now take the
following value:
war:[web_accessible_resource name]
In order to mock the XHR response with a web accessible resource. For
example:
piquark6046.github.io##+js(no-xhr-if, adsbygoogle.js, war:googlesyndication_adsbygoogle.js)
Will cause the XHR performed by the webpage to resolve to the content
of `/web_accessible_resources/googlesyndication_adsbygoogle.js`.
Should the resource not exist, the empty string will be returned.
Now support AdGuard's `randomize` parameter. If `true`,
the scriplet will generate a random 10-character string
to be returned as the response.
Reference:
https://github.com/AdguardTeam/Scriptlets/blob/master/wiki/about-scriptlets.md#prevent-xhr
AdGuard's `prevent-xhr` also support `length:n-m` form,
but since I do not see it being used, for now it's not
supported in uBO's `no-xhr-if`.
Additionally, the scriptlet will now honor `responseType` and
return the proper response type accordingly.
`fetchPropsToMatch` is an optional variable argument. If provided,
the scriplet will take effect only when the JSON data is obtained
through `Response.json()` and if there is a match with the value of
`fetchPropsToMatch` and the properties of the `Response` instance.
Examples of usage:
...##+js(json-prune, ads, , , fetchPropsToMatch, ?param=)
...##+js(json-prune, ads, , , fetchPropsToMatch, url:?param= method:get)
The optional variable argument `fetchPropsToMatch` acts as an additional
narrowing condition to fulfill before the JSON data is pruned.
Specifically, the variable argument `log` can take one of three
values to enable logging mechanism:
..., log, match => log only when there is a match
..., log, nomatch => log only when there is no match
..., log, all => log unconditionally
Prepend pattern with `!` to test for unmatched patterns in
stack trace. This applies to sctiplet parameters which purpose
is to test against the stack, i.e. `aost` and `json-prune`.
Additionally, dropped support for JSON notation in favor of
optional variable arguments notation.

This extends logging capabilities of `json-prune` scriptlet as
follow:
...##+js(json-prune, a, b, stackNeedle, log, [logneedle], logstack, 1)
Whereas before, the only way to log `json-prune` usage was to skip
providing the property chain:
...##+js(json-prune, , b)
Where `b` was the expression to filter out logging output.
With the extended logging capabilities, the logging output can
be filtered out with `logneedle`, which can be a regex literal.
Additionally, to log the stack trace the `stackNeedle` argument
must be set to non-empty string. You can use `/.^/` to log the
stack trace without matching it.

Additionally, uBO's own scriplet syntax now also accept quoting
the parameters with either `'` or `"`. This can be used to avoid
having to escape commas when they are present in a parameter.

Testing the context was causing the deprecated static property
RegExp.$1 to be clobbered, causing webpage breakage because this
property was subsequently used used by the caller.
New official name: `no-window-open-if`.
The pattern will now be matched against all arguments passed
to `window.open()`: all the arguments are joined as a single
space-spearated string, and the result is used as the target
for matching the pattern.
To enable logging, used the extra parameters approach, i.e.
`log, 1`, which should come after the positional arguments
`pattern`, `delay`, and `decoy`.
Added support for extra parameter `reload, 1`. If present,
the scriplet will force a reload of the webpage if the cookie
being set was not already set.
As per feedback from filter list maintainers.
