Changes:
From now on, uBO will allow click-to-subscribe on only
a few select domains, currently:
- https://filterlists.com/
- https://github.com/
- https://github.io/
More domains can be added if and only the demonstration
is made that more than a marginal number of filter lists
can be subscribed from those domains.
The browser alert box is no longer used to confirm
subscription to a filter list. Instead, the asset
viewer has been expanded to serve that purpose. This
way, users can peruse at the content of a filter list
before subscribing to it.
Now that the element picker user interface is isolated
frompage content world, there is no need to use the
`important` modifier for the element picker's own
CSS styles.
Further iterating on the work done in following commit:
- 1268f0ae43
This commit adds a new widget to the element picker to
control the depth of a cosmetic filter selector. The
new widget is essentially just another way of selecting
the depth, which is still controllable through picking
one of the cosmetic filters in the list of candidates.
In addition to what is deemed really bad lists by consensus,
some lists will also be labelled "really bad list"
temporarily so as to force-remove them from the set of
filter lists.
This will be the case for filter lists which are not
necessarily "bad lists" but which were once part of
uBO's stock filter lists and have been removed since
then for various reasons.
This will ensure that the majority of users who do not
modifies uBO's default listset will still have a
configuration which matches the official default listset.

The ctrl key is no longer used to adjust specificity of
a candidate filter.
A new widget has been added to adjust the specificity of
a candidate filter to various level. The widget will be
visible as long as the candidate filter matches one entry
in the list of suggested candidate cosmetic filters.

In the previous commit, the element picker dialog was
isolated from the page content. This commit is to also
isolate the svg layers from the page content.
With this commit, there is no longer a need for an anonymous
iframe and the isolated world iframe is now directly
embedded in the page.
As a result, pages are now unable to interfere with any
of the element picker user interface. Pages can now only
see an iframe, but are unable to see the content of that
iframe. The styles applied to the iframe are from a user
stylesheet, so as to ensure pages can't override the
iframe's style properties set by uBO.
