If there exist any built-in filter list which last update time
is older than 2 hours, the "Report a filter issue" page will ask
the user to update their filter lists then verify that the issue
still exists.
Once filter lists are updated, the troubleshooting information
will reflect the change in update time.
`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.
As was done with generic pattern-based filters, the source
string of regex-based filters is now stored into the
bidi-trie (pattern) buffer.
Additionally, added a new "dev tools" page to more
conveniently peer into uBO's internals at run time, without
having to do so from the browser's dev console -- something
which has become more difficult with the use of JS modules.
The new page can be launched from the Support pane through
the "More" button in the troubleshooting section.
The benchmark button in the About pane has been moved to this
new "dev tools" page.
The new "dev tools" page is for development purpose only,
do not open issues about it.
Add ability to bring back logger button in popup panel through
the advanced setting `uiPopupConfig`. Adding `+logger` token
to `uiPopupConfig` will bring back the logger icon in the mobile
version of the popup panel.
Additionally, the link to the logger in the Support pane will
take into account whether the <Shift> key is pressed, so as
to behave like the logger icon in the popup panel.

The troubleshooting information has been further fine-tuned to
report popup panel data related to the reported page, for better
diagnosis by disclosing any customization to uBO which was
affecting the reported page.

The URL to report can now be picked from a list of related
URLs in order to allow the reporter to publish edited version
of the reported URL.
Additionally, the hash, user name, and password which could be
present in a reported URL are always removed.
Unredacted settings is unlikely to be useful after all,
and removing the ability to unredact ensure users won't
mistakenly publish unredacted information.

A "chat" icon has been added to the popup panel to make
it easy to report filter issue on specific sites.
Reporting filter issues require a GitHub account, since
uBO does not have a home server through which reports could
be sent.
The report icon is available only for when uBO is enabled
on a given site.
On mobile devices, the logger icon is replaced by the "chat"
icon since it is more likely to be useful on small display
devices. The logger can always be opened from the Support
pane in the dashboard.

Specifically:
- Support i18n
- Autofill issues opened through Support pane with configuration
information
- Remove from About pane items found in Support pane
For now the language locales are not available as the text on
the page needs to stabilize before asking translation
volunteers to contribute their time working on the new text.
