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:

The minimum version supported on Firefox has been bumped
up to 55.0.
This includes a new, refined µBlock logo, rendered more coherently
and consistently for different sizes and display pixel densities.
The Safari build script has been modified to bundle appropriate
resolutions. The Firefox build script was slightly changed to
adhere to the naming convention. The Chrome manifest was
modified/ammended slightly to take advantage of new renderings.
README's beginning has been modified to be nicer and more
minimal.
Other than the logo's slightly refined look and having better
resolution on different browsers and setups, this should have
no effect on the user experience or further development.
