🛠️ What's New in v1.3.5.1 (since v1.3.4.1)

🖼️ Manga & Manwha Image Loading

• Strict Referrer & Origin Policies: Configured network.http.referer.defaultPolicy = 2 (strict-origin-when-cross-origin), trimmingPolicy = 0, XOriginPolicy = 0, XOriginTrimmingPolicy = 2, and sendRefererHeader = 2.
• Anti-Tracking CDN Bypass: Adjusted GeckoView ContentBlocking anti-tracking policy to allow anti-hotlink image CDNs on MangaFire and similar sites to receive valid referrer origins without being blocked.

📥 Universal Document & Stream Download Engine

• Exhaustive Document MIME & Extension Mappings: Support for pdf, doc, docx, odt, rtf, pages, xls, xlsx, ods, csv, tsv, numbers, ppt, pptx, odp, key, epub, mobi, azw, azw3, cbr, cbz, apk, xapk, apks, archives, and media.
• Direct Stream Downloads: New streaming download handler (startGenericFileDownloadFromStream) with modern browser headers (User-Agent, Accept, Sec-Fetch-*) and cookie preservation across redirects.
• Necko Engine Passthrough: Authenticated downloads (Google Drive, cloud storage) are initiated directly through GeckoView's Necko stack with full session cookies; dangling popup tabs are cleanly closed.
• Download Modal Updates: Modern file type icon mappings and clean dismiss/cancellation handling.
